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. |

Quiet mid-week pint with Iain and Lockey.

Busy on a lovely warm and pleasant afternoon, larger than the average Micropub thus coped well with our arrival. We sat in the back parlour.

| Fuller's (part of Asahi Europe) - London Pride | 4.10 | | For some reason I plumped for this and it was outstanding. I was still waxing lyrical over it down to the last drop! |
