You'll see our stall (joint with Swale branch), the drinks on offer for the first day, some of our superb sponsors, some of our lovely smiley members and some other pics from a fab first day!

Most importantly thank you to the hard working volunteers who organised, set up the stall, worked the bar and contributed in many other ways👏

Our trip to Rye in July🍻

We went to theoldbellinnrye , Restaurant at The Mermaid Inn , Ypres Castle Inn , Garage Culture Brewing Co LTD , The Rye Waterworks Micropub & Microbrewery

It truly was a wonderful day out with great weather☀️
Each pub we went to had friendly staff and a variety of b**rs to try.

A special mention for Garage Culture Brewing Co LTD who let us try what you've been working on, we see great things in your future (Keep an eye on what they're brewing up👀)

As always The Rye Waterworks Micropub & Microbrewery was a delight, with they're unique style interior and creative b**r names😂

We thank you all for your hospitality and conversions shared, we endeavour to see you again in the future!

📍Pubs:
13:00-13:55- The Monument

15:15-16:15- Foundry Brew Pub. They have a new Foundry Stout on cask that's worth trying, but there was no option to reserve a table and we are unable to stand at the bar, so if we can't get in we'll go the Bell & Crown instead

18:00 to whenever we've had enough- Thomas Tallis

🌟We haven't included the New Inn as we will be visiting its b**r festival the following weekend. Don't forget to add that to your diary also🌟
