Absolutely love this beer. had it on tap at the Irish pub in san Diego called blarney stone. Cool to watch fun to drink. Great taste.

@John – Thanks. It’s good to hear when other people agree! (Makes me think I’m not nuts!) If you see it on tap, give it a shot but otherwise there are many better choices.

I bought this last night and tried. This review is spot on. I guess it has to be tried to tap too but from the can it is not good.

I had a sip of one two nights ago and thought it tasted like bread soaked in water. Not much to it.

Rob, I agree. Considering there are so many great English Ales available, Newcastle seems to be the ‘Bud’ of English Ales. Very popular, very common, but not so good from a beer standpoint.

I love most English Ales but this one I really dislike. The aftertaste kills it, very metallic. Great mouthfeel and creamy but the aftertaste lets it down.

I am so happy (also saddened) to find someone who believes that the brew has changed.

Boddingtons Pub Ale used to be my favorite canned beer. The only canned beer that I would ever purchase.

I find the flavor unpleasent. It is much more bitter than it ever had been in the past. The creaminess is gone and the color is decidely much more amber than cream.

It’s very sad.

When brands and brewerys change ownership the product will never be the same unless the brewing location and the people associated with it does not change.

Thanks Joe. If I see it on tap someplace, I would have no problem getting it again on tap. Come to think of it, I don’t remember if there was a ‘best by’ date on the can I tried. Next time I’m in the store, I’ll check that out. Cheers!
