Only 2 others in which is odd for a Saturday afternoon. Beer line-up was pretty uninspired and subsequently we only stayed for the one. There's much better options than this in Ramsgate these days.
| Elgood's - Indian Summer | 4.80 |  | Tasted tired and thin yet the barmaid assured me it was fresh on yesterday, can only mean they're not keeping it right. |
| Triple fff - Alton's Pride | 3.80 | Not Tried | |
| Sharp's - Doom Bar | 4.00 | Not Tried | |
| Loddon - Gravesend Shrimpers Bitter | 4.10 | Not Tried | |
| Wantsum - Ravening Wolf | 5.90 | Not Tried | A friend had it and it wasn't in great condition. |

Rarely seem to get to Ramsgate these days so it's always nice to get back to the old local. Usual crowd in, perhaps slightly depleted due to the event at The Monty.
| Ramsgate Brewery (Gadds') - No. 3 | 5.00 |  | Perfect pint of 3. |

Met and old mate in here after work. Turns out a few pints of Dark Star - Revelation is enough to send me doolally...

Couple of afternoon drinks, only a few others in but the atmosphere was friendly and jovial.
| Dark Star - Hophead was 3.8% (some has also been brewed by Fuller's) | 3.40 |  | Not the best hophead I've tasted, a little bit flat and not as hoppy as usual. |

Only a smattering of people in, some enjoying the chicken padina on offer for Wednesday's curry night. Only stopped for one as I fancied something stoutish.
| Vale - Artful Bodger | 4.10 |  | Dark, full-bodied bitter with a tasty chocolate malty flavour. Very quaffable but couldn't help thinking a little more oomph to it would make it a special beer. |

| Sharp's - Doom Bar | 4.00 | Not Tried | |
| Crouch Vale - Amarillo | 5.00 | Not Tried | |

| Wantsum - Turbulent Priest | 4.40 | Not Tried | |
| Cheddar - Bitter Bully | 3.80 | Not Tried | Went off as I ordered it. |

Glorious day outside so dropped in to hide from the sun. Quite busy for half one in the afternoon. Whiled away a few hours listening to Soundgarden and Black Sabbath on the jukebox, perfect.
| Ramsgate Brewery (Gadds') - Oatmeal Stout | 4.60 |  | Beautiful, rich and oaty stout. |
| Dark Star - Rye & Juniper | 5.20 |  | Very bitter and pretty refreshing, really good beer. |
| Ramsgate Brewery (Gadds') - 80/- | 4.60 |  | Really good if a tad sweet for me. |
| Sharp's - Doom Bar | 4.00 | Not Tried | |

The afternoon drinking session seems to have become a weekly thing now. Only two other hardened drinkers in at 2pm. Shame as it was a cracking line-up.
| Ramsgate Brewery (Gadds') - Oatmeal Stout | 4.60 |  | I love this stout. |
| Kelham Island (probably brewed by Thornbridge now) - Big Black Blue Sound | 5.30 |  | Kelham's take on a black IPA. Quite tasty, lacked a little condition but the taste was really good. |
| Hopdaemon - Incubus | 4.00 | Not Tried | |
| Sharp's - Doom Bar | 4.00 | Not Tried | |
| Cairngorm - Trade Winds | 4.30 | Not Tried | |
