Boddingtons Pub Ale

Smooth, very easy to drink. This was all I could drink while I had an ulcer. A touch of honey, the beer almost reminds me of milk. Goes down like water, which I guess is okay depending on what you’re looking for.

440ml can.
Pours a clear amber honey colour. Has a solid foamy head. Smells creamy and not much else. Very feint. Tate is similar. Weak malts and water with a small amount of hops. Feels flat and thin. Like all widget beers I’ve had, this is not enjoyable at all.

16 oz Widget Pub Can - Pours a light orange/golden color with big fluffy white head. Nice cascading effect. Aroma is slight malt, honey, caramel, and metal. Mouthfeel is very thin, watery but still smooth and a little creamy. Taste is water, cream, and some very subtle hints of what a beer should taste like - flavor left very lacking. Could do with a little more carbonation as well, I think. Overall, not terrible - but very disappointing.

can: The only pale beer I have seen that cascades like a Guiness. This is a weird beer, but that’s what makes it work. For the ESB lovers, you have that malty taste; and for the cream ale lovers you have a a sweet flavour. Its head is quality & laces well. For all the flavours that are going on, it still is smooth & drinkable. Too sweet for me, but if you know some wanker stuck on north american cream ales, get them on to this & they might venture further into premium ESB’s & solid english ales.

from can pour is a nice golden with a hint of orange, very carbonated, thick creamy white head. smell - not much here, little bit of malt. taste - straw, creamy, light fruit, watery. looks great, fun to watch after the pour, just not that strong on aroma and taste.

Can. Nice creamy microfoam head. Color is pale golden. Aroma and taste are mild with malt and hops.

Draught can. Light golden color, thick creamy white head. Aroma is thin and one dimensional with a grainy, maltiness. Flavor is bland and watered down cream ale. Creamy mouthfeel but very lightly carbed (which is not a bad thing) and a bit weak tasting. A bland beer.

Ugh. This beer just tastes like water to me. Mild hop kick, mild maltiness with no discernible flavors... Not bad tasting, but very thin. It does look cool when first served to you, so I’ll give it props for that.
