3.3/5. Malcolm Uphill. Got a large Full English with extra Black Pudding on the way in. Pre Heatwave bulking up.
In The Thirsty Pig on the corner of Knightrider Street in Maidstone.
A very nice pint of proper beer at a upper middling 4.6% strength.
Grown-up's music playing quietly in the beer garden/backyard and the whole place sans TV or any form of sports coverage.
Better head home when this pint's done!
