I guess Manchester's best will always be Boddingtons, but since its demise and demolished brewery new brewers have been taking up the mantle. This Runaway local brewer best is very easy but perhaps a tad watery, although this translates as a smoothness. It is bitter to a hoppy extent. I actually didn't realise it was a Boddingtons recipe until well after it had been consumed.
