Philip Pirrip | Not Tried | 06 Jul 2025 | |
Hogan Sampling |  | 06 Jul 2025 | Fourth night on really and still some head and lacing to start with on this amber best bitter from Chartham, south-west of Canterbury. It quickly lost this and so many decants became necessary. A dry malty first bite. A moreish bitterness rising. A dry bitter hoppiness lingering alongside the odd malty note or two playing out. It turned out that this bitter did not see out the following evening and so proved greatly more popular than a bitter before it which took the best part of week. |
Hogan Sampling |  | 05 Jul 2025 | First night on officially but we have been given the odd pint or two of this since Thursday evening, and just one on Friday. Sill good head and lacing presented and lasting, good. A dry malty first bite on this amber best bitter from Chartham, south-west of Canterbury. A gentle bitterness rising up on my palate alongside the merest hint of caramel. A very moreishly bitter dryness prevailing. |
Hogan Sampling |  | 04 Jul 2025 | Second day supposedly on but not advertised as on, on a blackboard until too late as just after 11pm as on, was this amber best bitter from Chartham, south-west of Canterbury. Not as good as its tasting the night before. Was offered it after first bell and as only one pint maximum. Its head and lacing, still good. Lasting, good. A bitter first bite. A malty bitterness rising up and a moreish honey-infused dryness lingering. |
Philip Pirrip |  | 03 Jul 2025 | New cask on, not even advertised on beer boards |
Hogan Sampling |  | 03 Jul 2025 | Fresh on, not advertised on a blackboard yet, was this amber best bitter from Chartham, south-west of Canterbury, and so very good head and lacing to die for and clinging onto the sides of the glass like a limpet. A dry bitter first hit. A hint of fruitiness rising up, with a gentle sweetness aided by its honey malts, and lingering in its moreish bitterness. |
Hogan Sampling |  | 07 Feb 2025 | Good head and lacing. Still in very good condition and from first tasting the evening before. A dryish and very bitter, bitter mouthfeel. Nothing sweet about it despite the tasting notes mentioning honey malts. Certainly though a maltiness lingering and highly moreish. |
Philip Pirrip |  | 06 Feb 2025 | Well balanced basic bitter |
Hogan Sampling |  | 06 Feb 2025 | In very fine form. A head and lacing to die for. A pleasantly hoppy mouthfeel with a dryish bitter aftertaste. |
Philip Pirrip |  | 18 Aug 2024 | Basic mild bittering |
Hogan Sampling |  | 18 Aug 2024 | Very moreish and so stuck to it. Malty with a bitter aftertaste and a wonderful head. |
Philip Pirrip |  | 26 Nov 2023 | Lacking the bitterness promised. Pity I had ordered 2 at last knockings! |
Philip Pirrip |  | 13 Oct 2022 | Bland, easily drunk without noticing and this was just that |
Philip Pirrip |  | 21 Jul 2022 | Bordering on poor and alas I had ordered two at last knockings. Real chore to finish them off |
Philip Pirrip |  | 20 May 2022 | Rather more cloying than yesterday's |

Philip Pirrip |  | 29 Oct 2021 | I would never have guessed this would prove to be the last out of cask! |
