Early afternoon and a good crowd of locals in place. Good to see a wider range of FILO beers on pump. So much more professional now than on my last visit here years ago when the beers were rather homebrewish.

Very quiet on a sunny Sunday afternoon.
BeerABVScoreNotes
First In Last Out (FILO) - Mike's Mild3.40ExcellentA proper mild, low hoppiness and a full flavoured fruity and toasty taste. My score 16/20.

Found myself in Hastings on business and grabbed the opportunity to check out the FILO for the first time. 3 of their own-brewed ales on and locally-cured hot salt beef sandwiches amongst the numerous lunchtime options. Good number of happy punters in. Food/drink well presented (oversized half glasses) and service was swift, if not overly friendly.
BeerABVScoreNotes
First In Last Out (FILO) - Ginger Tom4.40GoodFaultless conditioning again, golden brown ginger-dominated with little sweetness or hop profile pushing through. Not bad, though very ginger.
First In Last Out (FILO) - Gold Premium Ale4.80GoodSunshine gold with bitter hopping, a lemony edge & dry slowly fading finish. Very good condition although begins to feel a little uni-dimensional towards the end.

Filo stands for the First In Last Out. It is a brew pub that serves its own beer plus a guest ale. Quite a small interior, but always very popular.
BeerABVScoreNotes
First In Last Out (FILO) - Cardinal4.40GoodA dark porter with good burnt caramel and malty flavour with a dry hop finish
First In Last Out (FILO) - Ginger Tom4.40AcceptableLight brown beer that is a bit thin, but a nice gingery flavour to it
Belhaven - Caledonian Deuchars IPA3.80Not Tried
