| Kent - Maple Wheat IPA | 5.80 | | I liked this new Kent offering a lot as it teased my taste buds as to its contents. On another website someone described it as "Smells peppery. Tastes syrupy. After taste like licking sap off a tree." I can think of no better epithet |

Evening until close at the other end of the day. Mainly staff and off duty staff both sides of the bar. This is, all things being equal, the 30,000th pub visit on this website but I think the accolade should go to Jack William who predicted, some weeks ago, that it would be an entry on this date albeit at The Butchers Arms, Herne which he did visit at lunchtime. Jack should however remember that the early bird catches the worm but it is the second mouse what gets the cheese!

After midnight early morning visit. A Chaka Khan disco record welcomed me but I'm damned if I recognised any of the subsequent ones.

The pub is found in Lewisham, Greater London, SE13 6NR.
Formerly The Coach & Horses and recently re-opened as part of the "Antic Collective". A large pub in Lewisham High Street, just south of the Ladywell baths complex and H.E. Olby's Plumbing Centre. One very large bar area with lots of floor space. One feature of the newly re-opened house is an array of 5 handpumps and the introduction of a gamut of guest beers from London and more widespread and the sale of a hand pumped cider. A welcome addition to the Lewisham real ale scene. Has a bar billiards table in use and a table football table. Regular live bands play and a small dancing area is provided. Antic closed the pub on 30th October 2016 in "preparation" for its opening of a currently closed pub in the Lewisham market area.
We have visited this pub 183 times, seen 307 different beers and tried 184 of them.
