To my mind, you can't beat a good pint of Pedigree Bitter. Made by Burton-on-Trent brewing masters Marstons, this pale(ish) beer combines a decent prickliness with round fruity flavours and a deep, oaky finish. My God, do I sound like Jiily Goolden?

B

When you start talking about beer that tastes of petrol or leather or something else utterly unbeery - THEN you'll sound like Jilly Goolden!

Mind you, enough pints of Ped will have anybody talking gibberish.

After many years of drinking both Pedigree and Bass, I`d have to say that, for my taste, Peddy has always had the edge.
When kept and served properly, it tastes as well as it looks...beautiful !
And as it is brewed just down the road from where I live, it doesn`t have to travel far!

I'm not such a great fan of Pedigree, though it has the advantage of being reasonably widely availiable and definitely worth going for over T****ys or J**n S***hs.

Either of those is better than B***ingt*ns, though. I have to say, I'm quite partial to a pint of Worthingtons every now and then, when there's no real beers available.

B

B***ingt*ns is ok as an alternative to proper beer if you want a light session bitter you can throw down your neck with abandon.

Mind you, a similar argument could probably be made for water.

That's Boddies for you - Sex in a Canoe!

I'd place Boddies on a par with Worthies, I think. I can at least stomach both of them, which is more than can be said for the two I mentioned.
