Totally agree with you. Heineken have done the same with this beer as they have with every beer company they have bought. As you have said in other reviews like Newcastle Brown Ale they have sacrificed the standard and quality for overly mass produced cheep beers. To me it looks like they are taking a standard beer and adding colouring and artificial flavours to try and replicate what was one a cracking beer. Unfortunately they have failed and failed big time and it is such a shame. Nice to hear your review and thank you for your honest thoughts. Keep up the good work. M

This is one of the reasons Bitter has such a bad rap these days. I wish brewers would rebrand bitter so it appeals to today’s beer drinkers. It’s such a shame that so many brewers sold the land that their breweries were on to developers as most were purposely situated by a river so they could draw water to make the beer as along with the hops the water gave beer it’s unique taste.

Just to point that John Smith and Sam Smith weren't brothers... John Smith took over an existing brewery in 1847 (the brewery that is now Sam Smith's) but soonafter built his own brewery in the town and left the original building empty. John had two brothers - William and Samuel (Senior). When he died in 1879 he left his assets to his brothers. William took on the John Smith's Brewery but the old brewery was left empty. In 1886 William himself died and left the empty building to his nephew Samuel Junior. It is that Samuel (the nephew) who re-equipped the Old Brewery and started brewing again in the late 1880s/early 1990s. So there was none of this "competition between the two" - they weren't brewing at the same time. John Smith died 7 years before Samuel (Jr) took on the old brewery. One assumes that William's children continued brewing at the John Smith's Brewery which was eventually sold to Courage in 1970.

I seem to remember that the John Smith's Original in the 1980's and early 1990's was a reasonable tasting pint, but yes after making my own homebrewed craft beers from kits and the commercially available ones, JS Original tastes like piss water! They send it to the big supermarkets and some people just buy it out of habit even though it tastes crap. They maybe messed about with the receipe in the 90's sometime when Carlsberg too it over? at the same time the ABV was dropped. And you can get still get at least half reasonable canned beers of only 3.2% like Daniel Thwaites Dark Mild - but John Smiths is very watery I find. A similar thing has happened to 'Boddington's Bitter' once brewed down the road from me in Manchester and it was an easy drinking albeit not spectacular session beer - but the Strangeways (Boddies) Brewery was closed in the 1990's and the production moved elsewhere in the country (I think it is now sold in cans and brewed in Luton by InBev?) and it is truly awful and watery like JS. They also dropped the ABV of Boddingtons Bitter - it is available locally to me around the Manchester area on draught but tastes equally as awful as in the cans!

John Smiths Bitter was originally a drink for the masses when there was massive industry in Yorkshire and was there to slay a thirst after hard days shift. It was always an average drink for the average man. In here in the north East we got and still do get Magnet and it was a staple in social/working men’s clubs. Magnet is a better beer but only slightly as again it’s an average beer produced for the average man. During the 90’s lots of beers were bastardised with the “smooth” craze but all it did was ruin the mass, average beers we had. I’ll admit I used to drink johns smiths bitter 20 years ago but once the nitro craze hit I started drinking Magnet or if not available Newcastle brown ale in bottle (that’s a long time ago lol). Even today when I go to my local social club (which is not very often) I will still drink Magnet and although it’s not a patch on any decent craft beers it’s still ok and drinkable for a mass produced average mans beer. John Smiths smooth is absolutely vile and the best description of it I’ve ever head was “a pint of volcano water” !! The biggest problem with John Smiths now is that beer drinkers tastes have progressed and moved on to more complex and flavourful beers. John Smiths on the other hand was an old fashioned industrial thirst quencher British beer 20 years ago and now it’s owned by Heineken they are producing this old fashioned beer down to a price with artificial ingredients and additives. Heineken have done a similar thing with Newcastle brown and it’s not even a shadow of its former self which is sad as these beer in their heyday were some of the best tasing beers of their time. I’m not sure they would cut in it today’s craft beer world but the original recipes would taste a hell of a lot better than these chemical added brown drinks that are being passed of as beer by big mass production breweries.

The smooth is a marvellous beer if you really don't want to taste anything. It's quite funny watching this. I was at Northern Monk a few days ago, had a couple of drinks and picked up some cans including the fantastic Even More Death. Beers like this are cheap but aren't any kind of value for money. Most of it's tax anyway so you're way better off spending a little more for something with flavour. Spend 70p a can more, which won't even buy you a chocolate bar and a packet of crisps, and enjoy the experience.
