Unfortunately you Americans are only blessed with Abbot Ale in cans with widgets. The full, award winning flavour of Abbot Ale can only really be enjoyed when it is served draught off handpump in a British Pub. Its sweet, smooth flavour is excellent and on par with Fullers award winning London Pride. If any of you guys have a chance to visit England, please enter a pub and drink Abbot how it should be served. Thanks and Enjoy!

Although definately one to be drunk in the pub rather than from a can or bottle.
Has a great deep red colour, and a nice bubbly head that lasts through the whole glass. RobBestwick (555), Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England

| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Jan 6, 2005 cask @ lancaster beer festival, cask @ rat and ratchet huddersfield, cask @ lloyds bar no1, cask @ some random pub in farnham common and some other places! the bottled and canned version of this beer does it no justice. from the cask (provided it’s kept correctly LLOYDS) is one of the primo beers. hence i’ve drunk it in so many places. poured without the sparkle to leave it a little less creamy (not a true yorkshireman obviously!) it goes down a little too well and has left me unable to walk on a few occasions. once saw a guy projectile vomit this still across a bar, to the non amusement of the bar owner!
