Commercial Description:
440ml pasteurised cans.
NOTE: The cask version has a separate listing.
After Ushers closed their brewery in 2000 (but continued as a pub company, renamed to Innspired Pubs), the beer brands were taken on by Refresh UK and contract brewed at several locations, including Thomas Hardy and Wadworths. From Summer 2004 this beer and the packaged beers have been brewed at Wadworth.
Easy drinking and thirst quenching, Best Bitter is particularly popular in the West Country. 'The Best Of The West'. Slightly floral hop with a malty taste and moderate bitterness make for easy drinking.

Light amber body with a compact white head. Light grainy malt aroma. Watery thin taste, lightly bitter, resiny hops. Drinkable but nothing flash.

Can. On the train coming home from Cardiff. Result of a rating. Deep amber colour with a creamy, giving beige head. I thought it was really trying, this little beer from the west. Indifferent aroma and only just bitter taste. Good smooth mouth feel. Alright under the trying circumstances.

Can. And it tastes of can. Poor quality stewed hops. Kegged beers and canned beers are the pits of the Earth. Suck it and see. [1.2] Re-rate. Properly warmed this is delicately fruity and not unpleasant. Let a touch of cold get to the can before it's served and the whole thing turns really nasty.

Had a can of this on the train from London to Torquay. Amber color, fine bubble head. Mettalic aroma, most likely from the can. Taste more like a brown ale than a bitter. If this is Ushers Best, I would hate to try their Worst.
