Sunday lunchtime - a beer club brewery tour ongoing - the cost included “drink as much as you want” apparently. Loads of activity in and outside. A really good vibe - for a big shed!

Mid afternoon - surprisingly quiet. Bought myself a rather nice branded 1/2 pint sleeve glass for just £2.

Wantsum - Coronation Ale6.00ExcellentJust a half of this as I was cycling - I was severely tempted for some more though. I believe Wantsum has created two different strengths of this special event ale.
Wantsum - Imperium4.00AcceptableNot a lot of life in this.

Wantsum - Transatlantic Fog6.00ExceptionalSuperb. A hazy IPA on keykeg but it will be available in cask at the Thanet beer festival in 2 weeks
Emelisse - TIPA (Triple IPA)10.00ExcellentThis was brewed by Wantsum and was excellent. At only £3 a pint, I shouldnt have had as many as I did as I cant remember what happened next....
