Boddingtons Bitter

Boddingtons Bitter is a nitro-widget canned bitter that can be bought quite cheaply here in the UK. I managed to pick up a six pack from 'Sainsburys' (a bit posher than Tesco's!) to take along to a themed dinner party. Since the theme of the party was 'Britsh night' I thought cheap canned bitter was an obvious choice. Boddingtons is originally from Manchester where it was brewed for over 200 years, but brewing giant InBev bought the brand and moved production to South Wales and Glasgow a few years back. Apparently the beer suffered for the worse with the move, although being realistic it probably was still pretty average before the move. The cask ale variety is still made in manchester, so if you happen to see it draught from the hand pump whilst in Manc town, then its probably worth a try. being a completely unqualified beer fan, I managed to find the following video review for your entertainment. Try not laugh at the thick northerner too hard - especially when he claims he can smell wine and sugar!
