~~ T.E.A 4.2% Traditional English Ale ~~ Neat

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
