| Sharps Cornish Coaster, Darkstar Best, Atlas Nimbus SPA, Biddenden Bushels cider (6%- colloquially ordered locally as a ‘pint of lose-a-day’) were available yesterday by gravity from stills behind the bar, 4 other stills not ‘on’ around 13:00. I didn’t take offence when the landlady, having spotted me noting the selection, asked whether I had a beer belly - I do! - and, amidst local laughter she produced the camra mag ‘Medway Beer Belly’, haha, before advising that the GI would be holding a ‘fest last weekend of Sep with an additional 10 stills in the garden. The larger room to the front of the pub had a pool table, dartboard, drop-down screen showing cricket (so must have sky), smelt a little beery from prev nt. The rear room was a plain rectangle with uniform seating around the sides & seems to hold regular live music. This leads out to a decent, albeit slightly straggly, garden with weathered furniture & an open ‘tented’ cover. trainman - 20 Jul 2008 11:56 |
| Fantastic pub. Arrived to be greeted by a friendly barman, selected one the ales from behind the bar, the barman informed me of another ale that wasn't displayed so I had that instead and it was perfect. I can't recall the name but they had 3-4 guest beers on. Barman was in fact the landlord and had a good chat as he said he'd never seen us before (we'd come over from Maidstone), gave us some directions to the next pub and invited us to the beer festival on Friday. Will be returning soon for sure. Lovely big beer garden as well. Sharp - 1 Jul 2008 11:50 |
| Nice pub, friendly staff and locals, good juke box, and great beer. Mattclary - 29 Apr 2008 11:40 |
| Beer served directly from the barrel is the main attraction here. As other people have said, worth going to this place along with the Man of Kent if you're in Rochester. pubcollector - 2 Dec 2007 23:05 |
| It's not that bad to look at ! Good companion to the Man of Kent and would fit in well in the real ale quarters of industrial Sheff/Manc - very good beer from the barrel mtaylor40 - 23 Nov 2007 22:56 |
