Got there around 9pm on Christmas eve and it was heaving.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shepherd Neame - Spitfire (or Spitfire Amber Ale) | 4.20 | | Now I don't usually give Shep Neame beers and Excellent score (because they're usually rubbish) but this was very good. It tasted very much like Harvey's best with a good rounded fruity malt to it. Well done Shepherd Neame! |
| Shepherd Neame - Porter | 4.80 | | Black with a slighly acrid taste to it. |

This pub has had a lick of paint since the last time I was here. Not that it was in anyway tatty before, but the colour scheme is just a little different and they have opened up the eating area into the saloon bar. Set in the wonderful village of Wye at the foot of the North Downs the pub is split into 3 rooms, public bar, saloon bar with real fire and 3 handpumps plus the dining room. Cream and terracotta painted walls with lots of brown wood and exposed red brick. Very cosy on a winter's day. Shepherd Neame pub with 3 draught cask beers on
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shepherd Neame - Late Red | 4.50 | | As close as a beer can be to a 5/5 but not quite achieving it. Admittedly this is my favourite Sheps beer, but this was particulary good. Mixture of turkish delight fruit and choc malts with good hoppy bitterness. Deep chestnut colour with thin beige head. Body is quite soft before more rich dark fruits kick in with choc/coffee and some yeast. The hops are fresh and stunning |

Christmas Eve and it was packed but I didn't recognise many of the people and they can't have been students.
