Boddingtons Pub Ale

I Had the pleasure of trying this delicious brew. It's going to be hard to describe in words how this beer was, frothy?... no... thick? no... light?... no..

In order for you to understand my dumbfoundedness on this loveliness. Iwas sitting there (no way! right?) at o'neals tavern with a few friends playing some billards. Ran out of my usual so i went to the bartender to try something new. Saw this strange beer tap which said "pub ale". Figured what the hell. Now this is the strange part, when she poured this into a glass, it looked like an amber guiness... it had the same spout, the same beer tap at a 90* angle. made the same microscopic bubbily spin that guiness does. only this was a very light and slightly amberish ale.

so i sit down to this glass while it is still trying to get all the tiny tiny tiny bubbles to the top to create this perfect head (picture as shown). as soon as i tried this, it became heavy for a quick second, then a moment later, it was very light, not too sweet, not too bitter. almost a perfect "end of the night" type of beer that can clear your pallete and get you ready for work the next day. not too much in the way of carbination (again, picture a light guiness), just an extrodinaly smooth, very light, not crisp, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the end of the night.

Recomendation. Do not start with this beer and do not go in the middle with this beer, it does give a slightly heavy feeling on your stomach after about 1/2 a pint.
