I misrepresented this beer yesterday.



It's not a Belhaven, it was a smooth and creamy, delicious Boddington's.


Looking for a link for Boddington's I came across this review: http://www.briansbelly.com/beerbelly/boddingtons.shtml

The notion that beer needs to be ice-cold in order to be palatable is due to the fact that so much of our domestic, mass-produced beer is swill, and the colder it is, the less we taste its swillishness. (See Pabst Blue Ribbon review for further details.) ...

I had expected something on the thin and bitter side, but what I got is more accurately described as "Vanilla Guiness." Boddington is rich and creamy and slightly sweet (you can sense a touch of honey as it goes down), and it leaves you with a clean, pleasant aftertaste in your mouth. It’s not a chugging beer, but if you’re like me you may find that your pint never actually leaves your hand until you offer it up for a refill.

(quite accurate).

You make it sound fantastic- now I'll have to search for it, here in Coors Country!

Yeah, it's pretty great. I had to go buy myself a four pack today.

Phew!

At least I didn't call it "rolling rock" by mistake.

Boddingtons is one of the few beers I enjoy. I'm not much of a drinker, I like some scotch and whiskeys, a few wines and a select few beers. Boddingtons is so creamy smooth, I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

(You should try Innis & Gunn too)
