The Neptune, Hove 15th September 2007

This small local was very difficult to find and the parking was so bad I had to jump out of the car and take the container in on my own.

Dark Star Hophead (3.8%): Delicious seriously hoppy yet not too strong golden ale.

The customers gave the impression that they spend a lot of time in the pub and mid afternoon on a Saturday were quite vocal yet very friendly. They told me that taking away pints of real ale in a plastic container was no way to drink beer, which I agree with to an extent but it was the only way for a driver to taste it.
