Ales of the Unexpected, Margate

This mircopub is in a more residential part of Margate on the East edge of Westbrook but not too far from the Rail Station. It's a shop conversion that is a long narrow room with a small bar counter and cold room at the rear. There was some low seating here but as noted below it is rather dark and I had trouble reading what beers were on. There were four in total something by Cottage and Mighty Oak then Salopian Hoptwister and Canterbury Knights. I went for the Canterbury Knights (£3.00) which was excellent. I didn't have a lot of time to spend here as I had a train to catch but it seemed well worth the visit.

Relatively new micro-pub located in a small terraced shop unit almost opposite the former Royal Sea Bathing Hospital. Limited amount of furniture in the front seating area, with a few more seats in the back room housing the unadorned bar counter. Dark inside, apart from adjacent to the glazed double-doors at the front (propped open on a hot summer afternoon). Decor comprises large maps on the walls, numerous pump clips and other bits of breweriana and bric-a-brac. Four real ales on offer, all served direct from the casks housed in a room to the rear, including Gadds 6.0% Thoroughly Modern Mild (excellent value at £3.00). Three ciders also available. Well worth a stop if in the area.
