Lovely evening so had to come out for a few. Quite busy with a great friendly atmosphere. This pub has really gone up in my books lately.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dark Star - American Pale Ale (some has also been brewed by Fuller's) | 4.70 | | Not as good as it should be. Possibly a little line cleaner, but still a good pint. |
| Brains - Bitter | 3.70 | | Good bitter. Malty with a lot of flavour for it's strength. |

Had some pretty awful customers in tonight but thankfully they left after a while. Other than that excellent as always.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dark Star - Festival | 5.00 | | Quite thick and sticky, quite a rich nutty flavour. Really good. |
| Whitstable - Native Bitter | 3.70 | | Not normally a fan of this brewery, but this one was quite nice. Plenty of caramel in the aroma and flavour. |
| Dark Star - Old Ale (aka Old Chestnut) | 4.00 | | A little cold so the flavours weren't as pronounced as I'd like. Still a nice pint though. |
| Fuller's (part of Asahi Europe) - London Pride | 4.10 | Not Tried | |
| Hop Back - Odyssey | 4.00 | Not Tried |

Stop number 3, this place was fairly quiet. Deserves more customers although it is big so that could just make it feel quiet. Friendly staff though.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hop Back - Odyssey | 4.00 | | Good, old fashioned best bitter. Nice oak and malt flavour. |
| Hopdaemon - Green Daemon | 5.00 | | Very light, bursting with fruit flavours. Not really my style of beer but it was still a really nice pint. |
| Dark Star - Old Ale (aka Old Chestnut) | 4.00 | | Very pleasant with s strong roasted malt flavour. Good stuff. |

|---|---|---|---|
| Dark Star - American Pale Ale (some has also been brewed by Fuller's) | 4.70 | | Very smooth and very hoppy. One of my favourite pale ales. |

Very quiet, but I was with a large group so it didn't mater. Just good to be somewhere that wasn't showing the football.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ramsgate Brewery (Gadds') - Dark Mild | 4.00 | | I love this mild, this wasn't as good as it was at the Monty but still a nice pint. Roasted malt with a little chocolate. Another seasonal I wish Eddie would promote to regular. |
| Elgood's - Double Swan | 4.50 | | Light fruity, hoppy golden ale, served very well. Just not that great a beer. |
| Ramsgate Brewery (Gadds') - DogBolter Dark Porter | 5.60 | Not Tried | |

Pretty quiet, came with a big group of friends and I think we trebled the number of people in here. Still a good friendly atmosphere though.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Timothy Taylor - Landlord | 4.30 | | Lovely pint of landlord. Sweet with a little caramel. Really enjoyed this one. |
| Rooster's - Wild Mule | 3.90 | | Hazy, amber colour. Grassy/hoppy flavour with a hint of frutiness. Quite good. |
| Ringwood - Old Thumper (now superseded by 5.1% version - separate entry) | 5.60 | | Not a great pint of this, the Old Thumper normally tastes funny in here and I'm not sure why. |
| Ramsgate Brewery (Gadds') - Seasider | 4.30 | Not Tried | |
| Eagle (formerly Wells & Young's, formerly Charles Wells, formerly Wells) - Wells Bombardier (now superseded by 4.1% version) | 4.30 | Not Tried | |

Really busy with a quiz going on. Good friendly atmosphere.

| Coach House - Honeypot Bitter | 3.80 | | Tastes of honey, other than that there's really not much to talk about. |

Absolutely dead, hugely disappointing considering it was St Georges Day.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wadworth - St. George & the Dragon | 4.50 | | I don't know what possessed me to try this. Wasn't very nice, biscuity with a lot of bitterness. Meh. |

Fairly busy, good vibrant atmosphere. This pub is really growing on me.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dark Star - IPA | 6.20 | | A stunning IPA. Fruity and hoppy, I'm not usually a fan of IPA's but if I find more like this I'll easily be converted. |
| Vale - Gravitas | 4.80 | | I was expecting a dark beer for some reason. However, this was a very pleasant, fruity golden ale. This one would go down really well on a summers day. |
| Hopdaemon - Cuckoo | 3.80 | | For it's strength it manages to cram a lot of flavour in. Very malty, and pretty tasty too. |
| Ringwood - Old Thumper (now superseded by 5.1% version - separate entry) | 5.60 | Not Tried | |
| Highgate - Fox's Nob | 4.40 | Not Tried |
