Had a good chat with Andy today, perfect place for a quiet few pints.

Hook Norton - Hooky Gold4.10PoorI do not like this. Served very well, but this was far too bitter and zingy for my liking. No, no, no.

Quiet with just the usual faces. Needed a pint as I was bored out of my mind. This did the trick.
BeerABVScoreNotes
JW Lees (see also Lees) - Scorcher4.00AcceptableDecent enough summer ale. Overly sweet and cloying, but still quite refreshing.

Came in for a quick couple just before closing. Quiet, but then where isn't on a monday night?
BeerABVScoreNotes
Potbelly - Redwing4.80GoodReddy brown with a thick white head. Looks a bit better than it tastes, was by no means bad but compared to other Potbelly beers it was a bit poor.

BeerABVScoreNotes
Ramsgate Brewery (Gadds') - Dragon's Blood ESB5.20ExcellentI've been waiting a long time to try this, and it didn't disappoint. Sweet and hoppy and very smooth. Lovely stuff.
