Any input gratefully received.
We are super nostalgic about Boddington's bitter around here, it was almost a cult in the late 70s / early 80s. I don't want to clone it so much as create a tribute to it if I can so it wants to be straw coloured and quite dry. I'm thinking that the addition of some sugar may help but not sure.
