Fairly quiet mid afternoon. I had set out to find a spoons with the Stone San Diego Session IPA on,and here it was first stop.
Wadworth - Stone Brewing San Diego Session IPA | 4.50 | | Wow, I could smell the hop aroma just carrying the glass to the table. Super hop aroma, just like crushing a hop cone in your hand. Stunning hop taste with a long bitter finish, maybe very slightly harsh but still a super pint if you like overwhelming hops. |

Shepherd Neame - Whitstable Bay Organic Ale | 4.50 | Not Tried | |

26 Mar 2011 (Martin the Mildman)
Very busy on a Saturday lunchtime, mainly with families dining.
Thwaites - Bloomin' Smoky | 5.00 | | Supposedly a tawny, cloudy smoked wheat beer, it wasn't any of these. What it was to me was a pleasant porter/old style beer with a sweetish malt character with just a hint of smokiness. My score 15/20. |
Oakham - Taipan | 4.90 | | Very hoppy and bitter without much malt for balance. Finish is hoppy and bitter. My score 14/20. |
Shepherd Neame - Ballast Point Calico Amber | 5.20 | | Rather bitter with a dryish hop character and little malt balance. Very dry, astringent finish. Reminiscent of Sheps beers in the 80s. My score 14/20. |
Wadworth - 125 Stout | 4.00 | Not Tried | |
Batemans - All Seasons | 4.20 | Not Tried | |
Robinsons - Ginger Tom | 4.30 | Not Tried | |
