A quiet week in Kent.
Kent Brewery-Black Gold. 4%abv. Described as a black golden ale:a bit more tasty than that, I thought.An Old for the Summer, perhaps.Taken at Black Dog (http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/81509/)

[Spinko]

Ringwood - Boondoggle. Remarkable in that it was from a plastic container in the Whistling Wren, Leigh. The pub is next door to Leigh Sports Village and was heavily loaded ahead of yesterday's rugby.
