Late afternoon friendly welcome and fairly quiet just one group in at the window table. My first visit, has been on my 'to do' list far too long and a nice surprise too, quaint unspolit interior yet to be IKEAised dare I say it..
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Timothy Taylor - Knowle Spring | 4.20 | | Instant 4* decision - light floral notes and a zesty hit made for a refreshing Citra style beer in superb condition. |
| Sharp's - Doom Bar | 4.00 | Not Tried | This was up against stiff competition today |

Been a long time since I've been here. It's a nice walk from the train station and through Chilham to the pub. There were a handful of people in.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Canterbury Ales (sometimes badged as Canterbrew) - White Horse Summer Ale | 3.80 | | A nice toasted nut and grapefruit hop flavour. Certainly good enough for me to have 3 of them. |

We stopped off here after our Kent b/f session. A truly delightful part of Kent that deserves more attention for another day. Plenty of tourists coming and going. And the pub itself was a real gem. (And not being a Shep's pub, I should of enquired as to why they were selling Master Brew here?).
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Old Dairy (being contract brewed after it closed) - Red Top | 3.80 | | Two pints of this devoured. |
| Old Dairy (being contract brewed after it closed) - Gold Top | 4.30 | | |

Although it was raining, the pub was still very full on a Sunday lunchtime. I got a lovely barrel chair by the real fire in the rear bar and sat reading my book, being happy.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fuller's (part of Asahi Europe) - London Pride | 4.10 | | Getting towards the end of the barrel, I thought, ok bitter. |
| Adnams - Southwold Bitter (was 3.7%) | 3.40 | | I don't remember it being this dark. Tasty, less yeasty than I remember, but still a decent bitter. |
