Boddingtons Draught Bitter (24 x 440ml Cans)

Product Information

Now, I don’t know for certain that these were on the 1973 pub list, but they were always Boddingtons pubs during the time that I knew them, and very much gave the impression of being originals rather than post-1973 acquisitions. You will be only too aware that present-day pressures bear heavily towards the elimination of individuality and character in many consumer goods.

Under Whitbread's custodianship the comedian Frankie Howerd fronted the campaign in a series of six television advertisements which mainly aired in the North West in 1990–1991. For example, in Preston and north of same, 7 pubs were deleted from a total of 18 (39 per cent) by comparison with 37 per cent over the whole area of the GBG.

It would be nice to get hold of a former Boddingtons brewer who would be able to shed more light on the yeasts used.Strangeways Brewery was closed in 2004 and production of pasteurised (keg and can) Boddingtons was moved to Samlesbury. The canned variant was distributed nationwide from 1990 and was the highest-selling canned bitter in the UK from 1992 until 2000.

Boddingtons achieved its peak market share in 1997 and at the time was exported to over forty countries. Manchester and the North of England were now fashionable in the public consciousness and rejuvenated from industrial slump. and there seems to have been an element of "we're alright, people will always drink ale" (typified by the Oldham deal in 82) until it went a bit wrong financially in 1982-4 after which the tone was more "well maybe we do need to jump on board the lager bandwagon", leading to the Higson acquisition in 1985. Henry's youngest son, Robert Slater Boddington (1862–1930) had a fifty-year association with the company and oversaw the installation of a bottling hall in the 1920s. The toasty edge makes it a tad more interesting than the ordinary Pub Ale in this infamous brand, while the hops do add a certain grassy bitterishness in the end - but no refinement or complexity at all.The brand's creaminess was emphasised through items such as face cream, ice cream, sun cream and whipped cream. Having looked at the existing Boddington’s brewing records, I’d say that the major factor in Boddington’s would be 1) they probably stopped priming in the F.

In May 2010 it was speculated in The Times that InBev ( Anheuser-Busch InBev from 2008 onwards) would attempt to sell the Boddingtons brand to another brewer after its failed attempt to sell the UK rights to Bass ale. Recently, on social media, there has been nostalgic discussion about Boddington’s Bitter — how good it was, what colour it was, how bitter it was and crucially, when it started to decline in quality.
