The hanging sign has been removed so there was no indication that this scruffy looking place was open, let alone called the Golden Eagle. The interior is actually much more comfortable than the outside suggests with a bare board floor and a bar counter that supports limited premium keg, a Beavertown lager and six hand pumps. The five in operation were drawing Dancing Duck’s Dark Drake, Golden Eagle, Welbeck Abbey’s Elder Maria, Aldwark Artisan Ales’ Hare of the Hill and Roan. There are also nine ciders available from the likes of Lilleys and Gwynt y Ddraig. I was the only customer so I was glad of a bit of background music, although the governor was very welcoming and would have probably had a chat if I was I the mood. I’d pop back in if passing.

Small pub a little out of the city centre with a nice ground floor bar and a suntrap patio to the rear.

The landlord seemed like a nice chap and the ale and cider selection was much better than I was anticipating. Golden Eagle Golden Ale was a house beer brewed by Greene King that we avoided. There was also Falstaff Geller, Dancing Duck Ay Up, Dark Star Hophead & Milton Nero. For ciders, there were Gwynt y Ddraig Black Dragon, Dog Dancer, Celtic Warrior, Welsh Warrior & Happy Daze, Lilley's Mango Cider & Bee Sting Perry & Thistly Cross Whisky Cask. There may possibly have been another Lilley's cider, as I noted the Mango down twice!

Another new Derby pub for me and one that I definitely liked. The only issue is that it feels a bit out on a limb, being a fair way from anywhere else decent.

Very smart estate/locals pub on the periphery of the City.

Tap House for Titan Beer and their Titan Pale was distinctive and in good condition.
