It's the summer, it's hot, it must be time for the Tickled Trout. Certainly this was my view 17 years ago. Still the same old Trout with it's great river side garden. However, given the fact I wasn't convinced the beer would actually taste good I had lager, which was awful. Don't know how lager can actually be off but it was.

Very attractive pub in the beautiful village of Wye. The garden slopes down to the River Stour and is very busy in the summer. The building itself is a typical white clapboard Kent building with a russet colour peg and tile roof. Inside there are lots of original exposed beams and several areas to eat and drink. There is a real fire too.
| Greene King - IPA (was 3.6%) | 3.40 |  | This is a perfectly acceptable bitter, just not very exciting. Looks fine, tastes fine (some hop, some caramel, some bitterness on the finish) and is drinkable without being tremendously interesting. |
| Greene King - Abbot | 5.00 |  | Did not have its usual malty flavours |
| Hopdaemon - Incubus | 4.00 | Not Tried | Tried Martin and Andrew's pints, but did not live up to my memories of this beer |
| Timothy Taylor - Landlord | 4.30 | Not Tried | Had a sip of Andrew's. OK, but not at its best. At least the Greene King IPA was as good as it should have been, so I stayed with that rather than drink below par Landlord or Incubus |

Christmas comes early at the Trout and with that much tinsel it's sometimes easy to forget it's only November. Anyway we sat in the same place we used to 15 years ago and didn't drink Fremlins as it no longer exists.
| Hopdaemon - Incubus | 4.00 |  | Bit of a harsh bite to what's usually an excellent beer |
| Greene King - IPA (was 3.6%) | 3.40 |  | Ian said he could drink this all night. Umm. It was okay but nothing to write home about |
| Timothy Taylor - Landlord | 4.30 |  | Unremarkable to the point I can't actually remember having it. |
| Greene King - Abbot | 5.00 | Not Tried | |

Fairly busy with a youngish crowd. The decor is a deep red with fleur de lis like embeleshments. For a number of years this was my local pub and I drank many a pint of Fremlins here (RIP).
| Hopdaemon - Skrimshander IPA | 4.50 |  | This always has a soapy creaminess about it that I find somewhat off-putting but the hops and low level malt was good. |
| Greene King - IPA (was 3.6%) | 3.40 | Not Tried | |

| Everards (see entries against Joule's & Robinsons whilst its new brewery was being built) - Tiger | 4.20 | Not Tried | |
