Sunday lunchtime. Good cycle ride here from Ashford. Not been in more than a decade, but I still liked the place. Landlady in particular was very welcoming and informative. I will be back if I ever make it up that hill again.

| Shepherd Neame - 4-4-2 | 4.00 | | My god, a Sheps beer with hops!!! Good fullness in the body and good hop bitterness and sting on the finish. I would have stayed for another but I had pubs to visit. |

A cosy main bar, together with a games room, and two little rooms laid up for dining.The pub was encouragingly busy for a murky January night.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shepherd Neame - Master Brew Bitter | 3.70 | | Had that marmaladey chewiness that can elevate a usually ordinary bitter to something almost inspirational. Masterbrew isn't usually as good as this, but this shows that it can! |
| Fuller's (part of Asahi Europe) - London Pride | 4.10 | Not Tried | |
| Shepherd Neame - Spitfire (or Spitfire Amber Ale) | 4.20 | Not Tried | |
| Shepherd Neame - Kent's Best | 4.10 | Not Tried |
