Came here late on a Saturday afternoon and England vs Ireland was on in the last game of the 2006 Six Nations. Not too busy. Beers were in good nick and if I'm ever in this neck of the woods again, I shall return
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Crouch Vale - Topsail | 4.30 | | Golden. Rally lovely hop aroma, lovely fruit including grapefruit. Really good Crouch Vale beer. Lovely hop on end too. Some fruit and malt in it that have got real juiciness. Good beer |
| Grand Union - Bitter | 3.70 | | Nice hop profile on this otherwise standard bitter. Very drying on the end. Good citrus, some pear drop flavour. Another good beer from Grand Union |
| Cottage - Clifton Ale | 4.40 | | Chestnut colour, some malt but fades quickly, some toffee, bit watery. Could be good, but isn't |
| Young's - Kew Gold | 4.00 | Not Tried |

The pub is found in Brentford, Greater London, TW8 8EW.
In the High Street, very attractive mock-Tudor exterior to this pub which is not far from the river. Central bar serves several real ales, ciders and perries through 8 handpumps and a large selection of UK bottle conditioned beers, plus a couple of continental beers on draught and a selection of continental beers in bottle. Thai food served and to take away. Closure followed which was expected to be terminal but has re-opened in spring 2019 against all the odds.
We have visited this pub 11 times, seen 55 different beers and tried 32 of them.
