Served at the Heathrow airport between our connecting flights, this was the first beer on my trip that came from a tap. And it was warm…
Name: Bombardier Bitter
Origin: UK (England)
Style: English Bitter (3.8%)
Appearance: This rust coloured ale is poured with an attractive, medium head with an excellent lifespan.
Taste: The aroma was difficult to determine but I would probably have had to say grassy. The flavours are of toasted oats with some notes of caramel in the background. It finishes with a citrusy and bitter aftertaste that lingers on the tongue.
Mouth Feel: Like many pub ales it is served at a temperature just below room. The palette is thin, watery and very refreshing. Also like many English pub ales the low ABV makes it very good session beer (ei: something you can drink all night and not get wasted).
Final Thoughts (3.5 out of 5): A good, refreshing ale and exactly what I needed after the 10 hour red-eye flight to Heathrow Airport. I only hope that the exhaustion I was feeling did not skew my abilities to review this beer.
This is another expensive attraction in London. For nearly $30 just to board this boat they had better let me fire its cannons.
