T.E.A @ The Lord Clyde, Clenham Street
We were strolling around and we found this pretty expansive pub tucked away down a side street. It looked neat and had some friendly faces on the outside, the regulars were friendly and bearded. Still, a massive sausage fest. The bar staff were neat and very friendly. It was like walking into an old gents pub...Infact, it was walking into an old gents pub - wood panelling everywhere. Perhaps a shotgun beneath the counter. Dart boards. Photo's of the Empire at and it's engineering triumphs. It was okay
THE BEER: TEA Traditional English Ale (ABV 4.2%). It's brewed by The Hogs Back Brewery down in Tongham, Surrey. TEA is The Hogs flagship ale. We agreed:
Codename B : Liquorice, sweet earthy taste.Good finish. Tasty
Codename T : Sweet, light and fruity. Lovely bitter.
OFFICIAL DESCRIPTION:
The brewery’s flagship ale is pale brown, with a hoppy and slightly fruity aroma supported by malt in the taste. A well crafted, bittersweet beer with a long dry finish. A classic Best Bitter.
This was a great beer, really enjoyable and we debated whether it could be drunk all day. . Possibly. Hogback people, if you are reading this; our compliments! if you'd like to send us some samples, we'll gladly review them
PRICE GUIDE:Around £6 for two pints and a pack of peanuts. Salted. Quite acceptable
Codename T: Signing off with much power & love to you
Two young men with a penchant for alcohol were struck by a bolt of pure nihilism and rendered into an existensialist conundrum from which there was no escape. In search of an answer, they drank a beer. It was a good beer. They drank some more. They got drunk and escaped the conundrum for a brief while. Now they have decided to review the beers that they drink and sometimes the cocktails or the food they eat. For truly, they are Gentlemen.
