Great atmosphere. Love the British memorabilia. Had a pint called Saphir, didn't note the brewery but its not on the list! It was good though.

Early evening and fairly busy but plenty of room to find a seat. A good welcome to a pub I had not visited before.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ramsgate Brewery (Gadds') - No. 5 | 4.40 | | In contrast to the the Oatmeal Pale this was an excellent malty brew. |
| Wantsum - Turbulent Priest | 4.40 | | Replacement for the Hengist and in excellent condition. |
| Brass Castle - Oatmeal Pale | 4.60 | | The Topaz and Boadicea hops gave this light ale an excellent flavour. |
| Wantsum - Hengist | 5.00 | | Not in the best condition and changed without question when returned. |

I hadn’t been in here since the old days when I used to use it on occasion as a waiting room for the overnight ferry to Ostend. Quiet in the afternoon.

Just made it in before the poor barmaid rang for time. Had a swifty before venturing into the chaos that is the town centre. Won't rate the beer I had as the badge said it was dark star revelation but it clearly wasn't the right beer.
