My favorite from the English bitter family. Lucky for me I have an English friend who has it shipped in on occassion. Very creamy head with a gentle finish. An excellent example of a true English bitter!

A decent beer. Easily the best of the "flat bitter" range of beers, sweet tasting and cheap :)

Lucky for me that i have two friends who fly to Europe at least once a month, so they allways bring me back a bottle or two of some English or European beer. Top notch as a Cream Stout goes, smooth, decent malts and a fair hop bite, with a great huge head on the pour and a wonderful aroma.

This is a Nostalgic beer for me, good times good memories in New York , the Nitro head , decent aroma, and a HIGH Drink-ability, if you drink it slow and let it warm up a little as you drink you get a decent ale to drink

I enjoy this. It is not complicated but it has a rounded taste, not as heavy as I would have thought, and creamy with fine carbonation.

Not to be confused with the widget.. this beer is a smooth yet clean beer with a strong hop but low alcohol by English Standards

I love Boddingtons. It’s fantastic for what it is. Pours milky white and settles with a creamy head. Looks great and goes down smooth. There’s not a whole lot going on with this beer, but there doesn’t always have to be. I love Boddington’s during the summer.
