Afternoon, but were asked to move from our table at 6pm to clear the floor for the dance area?! Beers were served too cold for my liking.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Thwaites - Daniel's Hammer5.00GoodBest of a fairly sorry bunch of beers, what is it with serving ales at lager-type temperatures?
Caledonian - Cossack Imperial Russian Stout6.00Good
Wadworth - Octoberzest4.00GoodNothing special, the festival program made it sound better than it was.
Woodforde's - Kett's Rebellion4.30GoodMight have been good but far too cold to tell.
Wychwood (now brewed at Marston's and Banks's before that) - Ginger Beard4.50AcceptableA little bit of ginger, might have been better if it had been served warmer.
Vale - Long Dark Nights4.30PoorDidn't like this, glad I only ordered a half.

A first visit here for some weeks and surprisingly, Maidstones first JD has a much better ale selection on with 5 established micro guests noted.
