Late afternoon to early evening visit, a few other groups in so we spread out and made ourselves comfortable.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |

| Cellar Head - Session Pale Ale | 3.80 | | Straw coloured pale ale has tropical fruit and sweet floral aromas with the intense flavour of gooseberry and green grapes with a light honeyed sweetness leaving a crisp punch and a dry, clean finish. |
| Goacher's - Best Dark Ale (aka Original) | 4.10 | Not Tried | |
| Shivering Sands - Estuary Porter | 4.10 | Not Tried | |
| Chislet - Island Road | 4.50 | Not Tried |

Lunchtime, interesting chat with the guv and a regular. I was told that the Butcher’s Arms is for sale - but with the aim of preserving it for posterity (as the first micropub).
Also a green hop from Bexley - Hukins’ Ernest at 4.3%
