Another bar participating in the Folkestone Tap Takeover. Only one cask beer on, but lots of keg.

Early Friday evening - despite its proximity to Wetherspoons and its pricing (£6.30 to £7.90 a pint of craft keg beer) it had a dozen or so youngish drinkers in. One cask ale listed had sold out.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Villages - House Session IPA | 4.30 | | Fruity, cloudy. Good body and a beer to savour. Just the half at £3.30. |

Afternoon- in Folkestone for some live music and arty stuff going on and noticed this place. Friendly guvnor who seems to be trying hard with “meet the Brewer” sessions. Focussed on craft keg and cans, pleasant place. £3 a pint for cask ale on a Sunday - result!
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Iron Pier - Joined at the Hop | 3.80 | | A very good, hoppy pale ale in top condition. |
