Jack William		08 May 2023	It’s Oakham, it’s 6%, it’s at the best real ale pub in Canterbury. What’s not to like.
Jack William		01 May 2016	Not quite as lively as it could have been - but delicious.
Jack William		25 Oct 2015	On keg - but still gorgeous. The manager said he ordered the keg version of this to make suret it lasted. Put it on Thursday last - I only got a taster and then it ran out. It may be back on cask at this rate.

Bear & Ragged Staff		04 Jun 2017	I have tried this beer before and not thought too much of it, this was superb. The landlord described it as "Citra on steroids" and that just about sums it up. Excellent presentation and condition.
