Yes, very good British ale, which are  my favorite style of beer/ale.  If you ever see Belhaven, that's a keeper as well.

... a plastic ball inside to make it creamy...

It's called a beer widget (invented by Guinness) and yes, Boddingtons uses them.  I believe Boddingtons is now owned by InBev (the same people who bought Anheuser Busch). As I recall, they closed the brewery several years ago and the current version is brewed under contract.

Boddingtons Pub was one of my regulars before I quit drinking.  It is a fantastic cream ale.  If you ever have the chance to get it from a proper nitrogen pulled tap, do so.

Thanks Ka Honu, So it was the beer widget I ripped out of that can and dismantled to see how it worked ;)
