Brewed a pleasing English bitter. This particular bitter is a Boddington's clone. Still needs to clear some but I have to say this is a great session ale. The recipe is supposed to mimic Boddington's when it was being brewed by Strangeway Brewery.
Cheers and God Bless!

German brewers are some of the best brewers in the world. I love their kolsches, pilsners, and their marzens. Octoberfest time is a great time of the year.

It's very well balanced finishing with a slight bitterness on the tongue. I'm sure you would probably enjoy it and it only runs about 3.7% alcohol by volume.
I've found a 1943 version of the recipe that looks really tasty that I might try down the road maybe even better than the one I'm drinking now.
God Bless

The main ingredient in the Boddington's clone is an English 2 row Pale Malt (Maris Otter) and it does not contain wheat. A nice balanced malty flavor (hint of sweetness and some very subtle fruity esters from the yeast used) with some bitterness left on the tongue.
I do like wheat beers though and if you refer to post #26 that beer is 45% wheat as I was attempting to clone blue moon. That beer also has American 2 row malt (from Monte Vista, CO), coriander and sweet orange peel. That brew was very refreshing and style wise is called a Belgian White.

Yes but blue moon is made in Colorado. Lol.
Wheat beer is very filling for me. That's why I prefer Becks and Heineken.
Anything from Bavaria is good for me.
St. Paulie Girl was ok, but brewed in Bavarian style, made in USA.
Same with wine--italian only-

I've got a fun fact Heineken (149 calories) has more calories per 12oz bottle than Guinness draught (125 Calories).
That is what is so great about beer people have a lot of different tastes and there are many styles to suit.
I do need to visit Ireland at some point and get a pint of Guinness on tap. I hear there is nothing like it.
Most beer I drink is made in the USA because I brew it lol.
I do enjoy beers from Left Hand Brewing out by me though I've never had a bad pint from them.

I bought some Blue Moon and decided I don't like wheat beer. I would love to try some Guinness stout too as long as it's hops & barley.
As always, I try and get Becks, Heineken, or Stella Artois. My husband thinks I'd like St. Paulie Girl idk.its made in German tradition in usa
I will have a glass of Peroni if dining Italian, and Gallo from Guatemala or Corona if dining Spanish.
The worst beer IMHO, and only good to get when you have alot of company is Coors light. Tastes to me like seltzer.
