29 Nov 2019 (ChrisE)
Friday evening and a good crowd in.
| Old Dairy (being contract brewed after it closed) - Green Hop Ernest Red Ale | 4.50 |  | |
21 Nov 2019 (ChrisE)
This place has stopped doing food (apart from crisps et cetera) and has applied for retrospective planning permission for use as a pub.
| Moor - Raw | 4.30 |  | In good condition but not really my sort of beer. |
05 Nov 2019 (ChrisE)
Fairly quiet but much interes in the forthcoming general election.
| Thornbridge / Thornbridge Hall - Made North | 3.80 | | Not to my taste. |
25 Jul 2019 (ChrisE)
Afternoon visit on a very hot day but thankfully the skies were darkening and getting ready for some welcome rain. Steve showed me a video clip of his recent wedding whilst I was drinking my beer, on the basis that apart from Wetherspoons there was nowhere else in town where I could guarantee a decent pint of cask ale I stayed of a second pint.
| Romney Marsh - Session IPA | 3.80 | | A good traditional pint with considerably more flavour than many 3.8% beers. |
24 May 2019 (ChrisE)
Friday evening, conversation was mostly about driving mini cars (Austin and BMW) but one lady changed the subject to London Overground's Class 710 trains, much more interesting.
| Romney Marsh - Amber Ale | 4.20 | | |
11 May 2019 (ChrisE)
Saturday evening and busy. Steve was having a weekend off and a young couple were managing the place tonight. A few changes since my last visit, namely the toilets have been relocated upstairs and the food menu has completely changed.
| Tonbridge - Countryman | 4.00 | | |
08 Mar 2019 (Andrew)
Gareth and I met Ian here and, later, Tim. Got busy quickly.
| Hopdaemon - Dominator | 5.10 | | A bit cold but very drinkable. |
28 Feb 2019 (Magnus Greel)
Midday visit a few others in, friendly welcome as always here. We met up with the rest of our group to kick off ChrisE's 17 and 3/4 birthday crawl.
| Iron Pier - Bitter | 4.00 | | |
12 Feb 2019 (ChrisE)
Tuesday evening and I was very disappointed to find that there was no cask beer available, evidently the new range of various keg type beers are so popular that just one cask ale will now be available from Thursday lunch time until Sunday or earlier if it runs out.
I was very surprised to find that Steve is now giving 20p Camra discount on the keg beers.
I sampled a half pint of one of the available beers (I can't remember what it was called) and found it to be horribly over carbonated. Not to my taste at all.

Afternoon visit and a good chat with Steve who has now added ten keg beer lines. The original plan for everything to made in Kent has been relaxed a bit as about half of these kegs are brewed outside of the County. Two casks on sale today, the other one was from Kent Brewery but I can't remember which one it was.
| Canterbury Ales (sometimes badged as Canterbrew) - The Merchant's Ale | 4.00 | | |
