Visited mid evening and found that a live act was setting up his stuff. There were a few locals at the bar and it was fairly friendly. I like the subtle use of sporting equipment on the walls rather than packing every inch with dusty sporting kit. A good pub.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tring - Side Pocket for a Toad | 3.60 | | A light brown beer with a soft mouth feel. It had initial marigold flavours rapidly followed by a base lemon bitterness. |
| Church End - Banger Bitter (aka Vicar's Ruin) | 4.40 | | Umm, an interesting one. It was creamy with a well rounded flavour that tasted of very little until the finish, which was a base bitter. |
| Eagle (formerly Wells & Young's, formerly Charles Wells, formerly Wells) - Young's London Special (was Special) | 4.50 | Not Tried |
