Lunchtime cycle meet. We sat in the sunny garden. Beer now 4.80 a pint so we moved onto the Brewery after a couple.

Yet another cycle meet here. Hot and sunny. The staff are very friendly and welcoming here - shame the beer is pushing £5 a pint.
Brakspear (at Marston's Wychwood) - Gravity (was Bitter) | 3.40 | | Surprisingly acceptable for a 3.4 |
Marston's - Wychwood Hobgoblin IPA (was Ruby Beer) | 4.50 | | Nice - but a whopping £4.80 a pint. In Thanet! |
Sharp's - Doom Bar | 4.00 | Not Tried | |
