After visiting the The National Pinetum at Bedgebury (and here's a tip, never go there during, a) half term and, b) a Covid pandemic that's closed all the soft play centres, because you won't be able to move for 3 year olds with coffee-drinking parents) we came here for lunch. Prior to coming I looked it up and found I'd already been - 5 years ago. I must be getting old. Anyway, it was very friendly and pleasant.
Harvey's - Sussex Best Bitter | 4.00 | | Very nice and if it hadn't had been a touch too warm, I'd have given it a "excellent". |
Musket - Ball Puller | 4.00 | Not Tried | |

We were on the way to East Sussex and broke our journey with a stop in West Kent. Having got home from work, packed in 20 mins and driven for 90 mins over here I was ready for a pint.
Musket - Trigger | 3.60 | | Pale yellow. Good condition. Good leafy bitterness. Hint of yeast flavour. Sharp bitter finish. |
