Went for a stroll along the coast and decided on the Monty for a refreshment break. Quiz night apparently so a dozen or so people in for that.

Only around half a dozen in here but then that's pretty standard for a monday night. Good to see all three pumps in use.

Orkney (Sinclair) - Northern Light (superseded by separate 4% entry)3.80GoodCrisp, hoppy ale. Quite liked this one.
Dark Horse - Burns4.60AcceptableBiscuity, fruity dark bitter. Ok but a little bland and just a little cloying.

Hadn't been in since I got back to the UK so thought I'd make it my last pub visit before heading back to Oz. This pub is consistent, I love it.

Ramsgate Brewery (Gadds') - No. 73.80ExcellentPossibly my favourite session beer, this is just so drinkable. Light, hoppy and incredibly refreshing.
Ramsgate Brewery (Gadds') - Rye Pale Ale4.00GoodSolid pale ale with a hint of rye. Good stuff.
Skinner's - Betty's Big Sister5.30GoodFruity and very malty ESB, I would happily drink it again.

A lively lunch time session. I rate this pub, and the Artillery Arms as joint firsts for best the pubs in Ramsgate.

This is the best pub in Thanet for me and the only one on my itinerary for the day that was non-negotiable. Everything about this pub is what I want from a boozer. The landlord's friendly and knows his business.

We arrived in time to get a couple of pints before afternoon closing. This is a superb traditional pub with very good beers, I always try and visit this place when I am in the area.
