Boddingtons Pub Ale

Brewed by Samlesbury (InBev UK - InBev)
Style: Bitter
Preston, England

From “Pub Draught” can. I guess this is supposed to be an example of an English “session beer,” but it doesn't really rock the american palate. The widget-type bubbler gave a good tall, cascading head (and this from a can that sat in my fridge for two years) that stayed with the beer and left a nice lace on the sides. Could not detect much aroma, which is better than smelling skunky, I guess. English pub style watery mouthfeel was uninspiring, and I couldn't pick up much taste, just a little residual sweetness. Nothing lingers much after the swallow. Nothing terrible, just not inspiring.
This is the same impression I got from the first can in the four-pack I got two years ago, so at least it keeps very well in the fridge.

My whole enjoyment of this beer relies on it’s rich creaminess...probably the only beer I could recommend for no other reason than it’s mouthfeel. Tastes Ok with a mild hop bitterness.

Thank you ONSLO! This is a nice ale that I enjoyed in a draught can! I enjoyed the creamy head and super crisp after taste that follows, a true classic that you can enjoy over and over! quite bitter! oh ya! rerate: on tap.. looks the part but the flavour is odd..i prefer the can i think but who knows.. if i feel like a widget beer go with guinness or youngs double choc...

500ml can (Draughtflow system). Pale body with plenty of small bubbles from the nitro device. Foamy head. Not much aroma, some slightly roasted malt. Flavor is slightly roasted malt with a hint of caramel. The body is light and much to aroma. This nitro stuff makes the beer smooth, but it’s very one-dimensional. Noting really wrong here besides the thin body, but really boring in fact.

Pour was a caramel gold with a 1 finger off white head. Aroma of malt and syrup with some hops in there also. Taste was caramel and malt in the front with a light thick texture and hops bitterness in the aftertaste. I’ve had this a million times and after rating understand how average it is.

Tap at Baileys in Knoxville. Hazy yellow, creamy white nitro head. Nitro in the aroma, steely pale malt. Taste is foamy, light bitter, and pale malt.

Pour starts out creamy white that thruns into a nice white head. Body is gold and clear. Aroma is malty and very dry. Flavor is a bit weak and watery but there are some malts and a slight bitterness there. Over all this is Just an ok beer.

Pours a hazy creamy golden yellow color. Aromas of malts, honey like qualities, and a touch of hops. Flavor is creamy, sweet malt and aftertaste.
