More hops

Our Green Hop Ale is in the cask and sitting in the warehouse, gently conditioning. It tastes pretty damn good too and I'm looking forward to enjoying the first few pints of it with the Mayor at the Montefiore Arms on Ramsgate's Eastcliff on the evening of Thursday 27th September. Beware though, he doesn't open until 7pm. Lois and the Mayoress will be supping in the Queen Charlotte on the fancy Westcliff at the same time. Come along and join in the fun - it's all for charity.

The following day is the start of the Kent Green Hop Beer Fortnight - the best two weeks of the year to wander into a Kent pub and sup the freshest beer in the world from the brewery round the corner. Nearly all the brewers in Kent brew Kent Green Hop Beer and sell it into their markets. You'll find a handy cut-out-and-keep list of where we will be delivering ours in the sidebar - be sure to ring ahead to avoid disappointment.

Of course, you can always go to the Canterbury Food & Drink Festival on Friday September 28th to Sunday 30th where you'll find Kent Green Hop Beers from all over the county, in one easy-to-use place. The Festival closes early evening so keep your list handy in case you haven't had enough by then.

Halfway through harvest.
