Early Friday evening - very busy, lots of familiar faces and a chance meeting with an old school friend. We enjoyed the beers as we caught up on a few years.

Early evening - a good scattering of customers inside and in the garden with a number of familiar faces. The juke box selection included a Vera Lynn number but nobody seemed to mind.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kent - KGB | 4.10 | | Excellent blend of goldings and fuggles hops with a good body. |
| Ramsgate Brewery (Gadds') - Summer's Day | 4.30 | | |
| Redemption - Hopspur | 4.50 | | Subtle bitter. |
| Tiny Rebel - Super Sharp Shooter | 3.80 | | Just a taster - badged as a “Marmalade Pale” - too sweet and slightly scented for my liking. |
| Black Sheep - Best Bitter | 3.80 | Not Tried | |
| Swannay (formerly Highland) - Island Hopping | 3.90 | Not Tried |

Evening, reasonable crowd for some live music outside. A very pleasant acoustic guitarist.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Three Sods - Mon Cheri IPA | 4.50 | | Unfiltered- but pretty clear - and a superb fresh, hoppy flavour. |
| Redemption - Hopspur | 4.50 |  | Disappointing- especially as I had mentioned to someone recently that I’d never had a rough pint in this place. |
| St Austell - Tribute | 4.20 | Not Tried | |
| Ramsgate Brewery (Gadds') - She Sells Sea Shells | 4.70 | Not Tried | |
| Black Sheep - Best Bitter | 3.80 | Not Tried | |
