Thursday evening and quiet when we arrived but busy by the time we left. Unfortunately we had to leave before the regular Thursday night disco started with its 83 year old DJ and his collection of 78rpm records.

Dark Star - Hophead (some has also been brewed by Fuller's)3.80GoodThe first one that I had had probably been standing in the line as the subsequent pints were much better.

Last pub on our crawl. Landlord justified his high prices without me asking him to. Linda Lewis the 70s pop singer was in there knocking back a few. She did a duet with me of her hit Its in his kiss. Should have asked her to sing rockadoodledoo as well!

Dark Star - Winter Solstice4.20Good£3.60 and the cheapest beer in the pub. Might not make this pub my new local.

Mid afternoon Boxing Day - quiet but getting busier. We like the record player (yes really) vinyl played with a microphone for amplification. Nice backstreet terraced pub - majoring in craft beers (not all listed - about 8 or so on offer).

This place is Sooo different. Lots of ales on served by dispenser hence freezing cold. The most expensive place in Ramsgate we have been with the most unusual crowd and such weird music. Brochure says this place is for artists. Well not piss artists at £4.50 a pint with a 2 inch head. Fab selection of beers though. Landlord told me the beer was at the kite mark. I drank some asked for more and he added a tenth of an inch. He then reluctantly added another 10th of an inch. Not our sort of pub, clientèle or rip off prices. Interesting to see what others would make of this place. Very gay friendly.

Dark Star - Hophead (some has also been brewed by Fuller's)3.80GoodOnly £3.60 a pint and the cheapest beer available
Dark Star - Revelation5.70AcceptableTook 10 mins to pour. At £4.50 a pint they werent going to waste one drop. Too cold and lacking flavour as I know it.
Time and Tide - Smugglers Stout5.20Not Tried£4.30 a pint. We had had enough of the loud 'music' that they were playing.

This pub has very strange opening hours. I looked through the window and spotted Dark Star Hophead and hophead and one other beer. Not open on Monday or Tuesday or before 5.30. Will have to make another visit.

Friday evening and a good smattering of people in. I liked the reggae music the decor and the little touches. Decent Belgian bottle selection too.
