A small long and narrow bar, beardy beer nerds serving a decent range of beer, nice enough but I've been to better.

Bottle shop/micropub that I used a couple of times during the various lockdowns. It closes on a Monday, which prevented me visiting for a drink on my last visit to Windsor just prior to Christmas. So my latest midweek visit was the first for a drink in over 2 years.
Little has changed during that time. There is an interesting choice of cask and keg beers, with an excellent selection of bottles and cans in the fridges. One change that has been made is the addition of a number of real ciders.
The narrow space has the bar at the rear and I believe there are just 3 tables indoors. A corridor to the side of the bar leads to the toilets and further outdoor seating, which I have not yet explored.
Staff are friendly and are certainly very knowledgeable about their beer range. The two cask ales were Double-Barrelled Parka & Elusive Microball. Ciders were Ross-on-Wye All Quadrants, Tutts Clump Dark Fruits & Berkshire Diamond & Ascension Pilot & Dance Commander.
Craft beers were Lost & Grounded Helles & Saison D'Avon, Disruption/Elusive The Man Who Wasn't There, Newbarns Plain Dark Beer, Wild Weather King Street Pale & Let's Dansk, Duration Dripping Pitch, Siren Turns, Ampersand/Pastore Farro E Miele & St Mars of the Desert Fruit Stingo: Blackberries & Ruby Grapefruit.
There are menus on the tables for pizzas, which came about due to the scientific discovery that substantial meals prevented the spread of Covid. They obviously proved popular, as they opted to keep them. But I'm not sure whether they are prepared on the premises or ordered in from elsewhere. We didn't choose to explore this option.
An excellent choice for some more unusual beers (and now ciders) when in Windsor.
