Whitbread Beer Company

Commercial Brewery in Dunstable, Bedfordshire, England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Description
In 2001, Whitbread decided to sell all its breweries and brewing interests (Whitbread Beer Company) to Interbrew, now known as Anheuser-Busch InBev. Whitbread-branded alcoholic beverages are still available in the UK, such as canned Whitbread bitter, but these are not produced by Anheuser-Busch InBev, but rather under licence by other producers.

Draft. Kind of sweet, too much sweetness, but not overhopped so I guess that’s something.

Bottle. Was not impressed with this at all and thought it was way overpriced for what it tasted like. I didn’t know that Boston Beer Co. made this stuff. Believe someone else used to make it. Anyhow, don’t recommend.

Few pints during my early ticking career, mainly at the Midland round the back of Cheltenham station, with Chris Fudge off V60 ... Spring 91. Not much choice back then so made do ... passable cask bitter when kept well.
