Stop 4 on our Ramsgate crawl - this town is superb for a pub crawl. Sat in the corner (main?) bar and didn’t notice any real ales at first. My daughter and I went for a half of the Earl Grey. Getting hungry at the stage and the pub was happy for us to “order in”. The pizza place across the road obliged with a delivery. A lovely building - and I particularly like the little “snug” bar that I only found on the way to the loo.

Marble - Earl Grey IPA6.80ExcellentThis was superb - my daughter described it as “having the nose of a wine”.

Mid evening and busy with amusingly loud swearing SAGA louts - and that included the men amongst them! We sat by the fire and enjoyed the raucous atmosphere in here tonight.

Tiny Rebel - Dutty4.20ExcellentHazy and fairly fresh didn't detract from the enjoyment of drinking this earthy hoppy citrus and pineapple broth.

Two cask ales on among the numerous keykegs. Discussion was about why a 4.2% citra was at £3.90 and a Gadds 4.7% beer at only £3.20.

Very short mid evening visit. Barman said no cask ales available as had only been delivered that morning.

Few in. Found a can of beer for £10. Expensive Keg beers but the cask ales are reasonable

Fourth pub and fairly quiet until we arrived. Echoing Phil's remarks regarding Keg vs Cask.

Check which beers are cask ales and which are keg on a large blackboard. 3 handpumps and 10 keg lines. Closed in May 2017 due to licensing issues. Bare wooden floor boarded throughout.
