My first visit to this pub in ages. Quiet, a little after noon. But preparation of a hog roast, nearly every table laid for dining, and masses of staff around, suggests that plenty of customers were anticipated.

A pub a number of us have been using for years so we decided a good venue for a pre-Christmas drink. Initially steady then a funeral party came in so became wedged. The deceased was a regular and the hearse had been driven by the pub on the way to the service.

Having got the 2012 Good Beer Guide for Christmas I found this jem only 40mins away from Jane's mum's. The pub was large and relaxed and seemed as much a drinker's pub as a diner's.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tring - Side Pocket for a Toad | 3.60 | | Nettle hops, rich creamy body, green fruit. Really very lovely. |
| Sharp's - Special | 5.00 | Not Tried | |
| Woodforde's - Wherry | 3.80 | Not Tried | |
| Dark Star - Hophead was 3.8% (some has also been brewed by Fuller's) | 3.40 | Not Tried | |
