Afternoon visit, fairy quiet at this time but they appeared to be getting ready for a busy evening. The guv confirmed that the Kent Green Hop Festival is planned to go ahead this year and that a web site should be up and running in a few weeks time.

Late afternoon- bumped into an old acquaintance and had a very enjoyable hour or so catching up. Bit disappointed that their own cask ale is now £4.90 a pint - must be the high transport costs from the brewery. Only 2 cask ales on.

Early evening- stop 4.
Not too busy, dark but comfortable.
Tried to order a flight of 3 ales - but was told I had to have 5 - bit much when they only had 4 ales on.

Friday lunchtime-a contemporaneous entry. I’m here, enjoying the beer, the good choice of subtle music through the decades (Beatles, Lionel Richie and my all time favourite- for the day - It’s Friday, I’m in Love).
Just picked up the excellent book “Much Drinking in the Marsh” by Keith Swallow. It is a very good read.

The pub is found in Canterbury, Kent, CT1 2NR.
Brewery tap for Canterbury Brewers. The brewery is inside the building and may be viewed through an internal window. Upstairs and ground floor bars with the latter always open. 7 handpumps sported in each of the 2 bars. Substantial discount on real ales for Card carrying CAMRA members - at April 2013 this was 10% on own brewed beer - ask if there is a discount on food too as this is allegedly 10% too. Consists of two bar areas - one downstairs adjacent to the brewery and another up some steps to a mezzanine level. Originally located in White Horse Lane near the Cherry Tree pub. In addition to its excellent home brewed ales the pub is getting a reputation for tasty and good value food. Moved in October 2018 to a new location in Stour Street "lock stock and barrel".
We have visited this pub 140 times, seen 98 different beers and tried 73 of them.
