They were having a mini beer festival tonight. Only polite to come and see what they've got. Nice friendly atmosphere as always.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tring - Colley's Dog | 5.20 | | Rich and malty ruby ale. Pretty good. |
| 1648 - Saint George English Ale | 4.50 | | In a blind tasting I would have sworn this was Incubus. Obviously that's not a bad thing as Incubus is lovely. Really malty with a biscuity flavour as well. |
| Tring - Side Pocket for a Toad | 3.60 | | Nice malty bitter, nothing fancy. Not terribly exciting, was hoping for more from the name. |

Busy with people eating, drinking and playing pool. A brightly lit pub with plenty of seating and although it was busy it felt relaxed. Good pub.
