SB posts SB 0.5 BB, Hero posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has A♠ 2♠

fold, fold, fold, BTN raises to 2.5 BB, fold, Hero calls 1.5 BB

Flop: (5.5 BB, 2 players) J♣ 5♥ A♣
Hero checks, BTN bets 2 BB, Hero calls 2 BB

Turn: (9.5 BB, 2 players) T♦
Hero bets 6.5 BB, BTN calls 6.5 BB

River: (22.5 BB, 2 players) J♥
Hero bets 15 BB, fold

Hero wins 21.5 BB

Is betting the river too agressive here? Decided to bet in the moment because it seemed that we have decent fold equity here, but no idea if that is true or not.

I would normally check/call the turn. You beat only a bluff on the turn with top pair no kicker.
If you bet you beat only a draw or maybe Jx. River you get only a missed draw to fold I think what you beat.
Ax or a J isn't folding and Tx seems unlikely in villains range.
