Visits Details

10 Oct 2015 (Jack William)
Mid afternoon - a few drinkers in. I owe this visit to Phillip Pirrip - but I still need one more venue to REALLY complete my Canterbury Full House. My first pint was cloudy and sharp - replaced amicably with "might have been the first one out today". I question whether a hotel bar has enough trade to keep 5 ales in good condition, especially with 10 other beers and ciders on keg.
