Absolutely heaving down the seafront and a lot of beer was being consumed at the beer tent. Barrels were disappearing very quickly. Good to see so many people having a good time.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ramsgate Brewery (Gadds') - DogBolter Dark Porter | 5.60 | | Absolutely lovely pint. Thick and creamy with a lovely chocolate and roasted malt flavour. |
| Dark Star - Original | 5.00 | | Very dark with roasted malt and fruit flavours. Extremely good. |
| Ramsgate Brewery (Gadds') - No. 5 | 4.40 | | Solid best bitter. Malty and refreshing. |
| Thornbridge / Thornbridge Hall - Jaipur | 5.90 | | Not my cup of tea, but others were raving about it. Extremely hoppy with a bitter finish. |
| Ramsgate Brewery (Gadds') - Festiv'Ale | 3.80 | | Light and refreshing hoppy bitter. Perfect for a summers day. |
| Dark Star - Hophead was 3.8% (some has also been brewed by Fuller's) | 3.40 | Not Tried | Sold out ridiculously quick. Annoyed I didn't get one. |
| Ramsgate Brewery (Gadds') - Summer's Day | 4.30 | Not Tried |

The Beer Festival is found in Ramsgate, Kent.
A beer festival of sorts along with a funfair, market and water-skiing. Third year running, originally had powerboats, but that's been exchanged for water-skiing.
We have visited this Beer Festival once, seen 7 different beers and tried 5 of them.
