Gravesend's first micropub, open since September 2014.
At least four gravity-drawn real ales straight from the stillage, changing constantly, like a rolling beer festival. No bar to queue at, no television, no fruit machines: one small room, good beer, and people talking to each other.
Cask, keg, cider and a whisky shelf. What is on today is chalked on the boards below, and on the wall inside.

Four cask lines as a rule, always in the same places, so you know where to look, and more of them when there is a festival on. Keg and cider alongside.
