Quiet - 4 ales on but noted only 3 - too taken by the Gadd's to notice the 4th.

Ramsgate Brewery (Gadds') - Dragon's Blood ESB5.20ExcellentI like a blond hoppy beer ideally - and this was malty and ruby coloured - but what flavour and bite. Straight from the barrel on the bar - full of flavours, a bit more life and it would have rated exceptional.

The pub is found in Bridge, Kent, CT4 5LA.

In High Street, a fair sized pub with 2 main areas. The side room is laid up for food and the main bar area is narrow with a couple of comfy chairs in it but then turns into a seated area. Taken over by new lessees with a re-naming at the end of 2020 and relaunch very much as a food venue.

We have visited this pub 39 times, seen 51 different beers and tried 32 of them.
