Windsor and Eton Guardsman – new on today at The Fox Inn at Fox Corner.
Windsor and Eton Guardsman
As the first new beer to be brewed in Windsor for nearly 80 years GUARDSMAN is how Windor and Eton Brewery think every Best Bitter should taste. Guardsman is a lovely copper-coloured session strength ale with a tangy taste and a really fresh hop finish. It is brewed with premium Maris Otter pale malt and a blend of Pilgrim, Styrian Golding and Fuggles hops.
Each year Windsor and Eton Brewery change their pump clip to show our support for the Poppy Appeal, remembering Guards past and present. We will remember them.
