4 beers on. Very efficient cooling system here.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Howling Hops (Brewed at Hackney Wick) - Miles Away | 5.00 | | Cold and hoppy. What was needed on a hot evening. Magical man entertained us. Sort of. |
| RCH - Old Slug Porter | 4.50 | | Cold but lacked flavour but still good. |

My first visit to this new addition to the Thanet micropub scene. Doing a roaring trade this afternoon with all tables occupied. Well worth a visit and handy for the railway station.

First visit. 6 beers on all at £4 a pint. 2 could be had at mind the gap 25% cheaper. Most expensive micropub we found in Broadstairs today. Think landlor needs to check prices in other micros not the sheps pubs.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kent - Prohibition | 4.80 | | Nice pint |
| Shivering Sands - Ribersborg Stout | 4.70 | | Nice. |
