A friend of mine from Manchester suggested I try this beer a few weeks back. I loved it! Great smooth taste. Goes down very easy…as a matter of fact the more you drink the better it tastes. I can’t wait to find a store that carries it. I’m an Erdinger girl..but I really enjoyed this!

See the comment above yours, relating to the sale of the brewery to Anheuser Busch the worlds foremost purveyors of lowest common denominator beer. They brew beer it seems, not because because they care about it, but for the sole purpose of making as much money as possible. For marketing purposes the real individuality of a brew (read taste) is flattened out, in order to sell to as many people as possible. Especially in markets such as the US where mass market beer has always tasted of next to nothing. I notice that the sales of this beer have been falling, coincedence? This is not dissimilar to the UK and Australia where mass market beer is rubbish as well, support small local breweries if you have them. They are preserving the art of quality brewing .

I used to drink Boddington a few years back, I just went to buy two cases of it. It does not taste the same anymore. The “Vanilla Creaminess” is gone. What happened to this beer? I am disappointed. Now I am stuck with two cases that I can’t do anything about but finish it. Can someone tell me what’s different from 4 years ago with Boddington?

FYI, this beer is now owned by Anheuser Busch/InBev and no longer brewed in Manchester.

It’s nice to see the “Boddinton’s” sign in my local beer and wine store. Seeing as how I’m from Oldham and I live really close to a Canadian Millitary base. On ‘bad days’ it’s even greater to see. Go Tudor House!

Great review and great beer. I religiously purchase this beer whenever my surplus runs low. This beer, BEAMISH, and Stone Brewing are pretty much all you can find in my fridge. It’s a bummer that InBev bought this brand, I believe they shut down their brewery too… what a shame… Still, a great brew.
