Windsor & Eton Brewery Unit 4 Taproom, Windsor

An impressive roomy taproom with it's own in house kitchen. The long bar has eight handpumps all in use and 21 keg taps along the rear wall.The W & E Americano Stout on cask was superb. Well worth the walk to find.

Definitely one of the better brewery taps i have been to.Surprisingly busy considering its a little walk out of town Tried a couple of cask and 3 keg beers and liked the lot.Had 4 W + Eton beers on the day and was very impressed with them.They do food and coffee and my all day breakfast muffin was good just when i needed some food to stave off the effects of the beer.

The Taproom for Windsor & Eton Brewery has now been relocated nextdoor in Unit 4, with the old taproom now being used as a shop for off sales. The new taproom is much larger and is spread over a couple of storeys, with a mezzanine level having plenty of additional seating to the main bar area. The bar is to your left as you enter and features around 8 handpulls that yesterday were displaying festive pumpclips with most of the brewery's most popular beers having been renamed for the season. The real titles of the beers on were Knight of the Garter, Guardsman, Father Thames, Mandarin, Windsor Knot & Conqueror. Craft beers on were Windsor & Eton Roast Chestnut Ale, Shout, Capital, Republika, Good Cop, Treason, White Riot, Storm & Eton Mess, with guests being Portobello London Pale & Black Jack Manchester Tart Stout. Ciders were Sandford Orchards Devon Red & Fanny's Bramble. Plenty of staff are around. In fact, as we left, there were more staff than customers. Seating is at high tables and stools, whilst there is a counter selling food in one corner of the taproom, where the advertised food was not actually available. The new taproom is certainly a much nicer experience than the smaller old one. But I'm still not overawed with Windsor & Eton's ales and the whole experience now feels much more corporate.
