 Our
next guest ale will take a short journey down the M4 from
the West Midlands to be with us at The Fox next month.
Golden
Glow (4.4% ABV), from the Holden brewery in Dudley, has a gentle moreish sweetness with
an almost citrus bitter finish. Brewed using
English Maris Otter malts, Golden Glow was the Champion Beer of Britain Bronze Medal Winner in the
Golden Ales Category in 2006.

 We
are very pleased to be able to offer real ale lovers a local
guest ale this month. Not just a local ale, but one
that we know will go down well with our customers.
Old
Hooky (4.6% ABV) from the Hook Norton brewery is a
beautifully balanced beer, fruity by nature, with a
well-rounded body and an echo of Crystal Malt. A
medium ruby in colour, it has a very distinctive nose
with hints of clove and cinnamon and a lovely cherry
fruit character. It's a creamy-textured beer that stays
quite sweet in the mouth, making
it an easy-drinking beer.
Reduce your
carbon footprint and try one of Oxfordshire's favourite real
ales this month at The Fox.

 No sooner is Christmas out of the way than we start planning
the next celebration. Valentine's Day is less than six
weeks away, and you know how much hell you'll get if you
forget the one you love.
We've designed a menu
specially for young and not so young lovers, and this year
it will be available from Thursday 14 to Saturday 16
February.
Download it now, and take a
look at the ingredients we'll be using, all designed to
bring out the animal in you!
In addition,
if you pair up with another couple and reserve a table for
four, we'll give you a bottle of house wine with our
compliments.
Book your
table now for a romantic dinner for two (or four!) at The Fox - or
there will be hell to pay!

We have some warming beers coming to The Fox this winter:
Old

beautifully balanced beer, fruity by nature, with a
well-rounded body and an echo of Crystal Malt. A
medium ruby in colour, it has a very distinctive nose
with hints of clove and cinnamon and a lovely cherry

 the Champion Beer of Britain Bronze Medal Winner in the
Golden Ales Category in 2006.
Greene
King Fireside (4.5% ABV) is ruby in colour, with a
robust and refreshing taste. It is a full-bodied mature English
ale, late-hopped for a malty, fruity
flavour. A great winter warmer.
Pop in for
a taste of real ale this winter - we'll have more choice
than ever.

A very happy and prosperous New Year to you all. I
hope that the New Year's Eve headache has abated, and we can
all look forward to a year with fewer floods and more
sunshine.
I'm pleased to
be able to give you some good news to start the year.
Having finally received part-payment from our insurers, I
have ordered carpets to replace those we lost in last year's
floods, and they should be laid in the first week in
February.
We must thank
you again for your patience while we battled with the
insurance company, and hope you approve of the new design. |
