Got here about 8pm with Gareth and spent an hour or so drinking the porter. Quite busy and friendly as ever.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Four Candles - Parkers Hazelnut Porter | 4.40 | | Deep brown. Strong sweet hazelnut flavour. Low hopping. Was brewed originally for the Thanet Beer Festival as a one off but staff at the Parkerville convinced Four Candles to brew them a batch - hence the name. |
