Located in a former goods-shed close to the Canterbury railway-station, this ´market-stall ´ offers an almost incredible selection of english quality beers - in aitumn 2011 for example 21 different "Kernels". Very friendly and knowledgeable service. Worth a journey, one of the best beers shops in the U.K.…

Great place. What a selection! I think I saw about 200 different beers in the tiniest space imaginable. The dude working there was great, he chatted to us the whole time and we discussed what we liked, and he discussed what he had. We ended up only buying 2 mixed 4-packs, as we knew we had to drink them for breakfast on coming days. But my goodness, what a breakfast some of them were. To visit Canterbury and not visit here is a sin before malt and before hop.

I was swinging by to pick up some beers as I was driving across the channel anyway and Canterbury isn’t too far away from Dover. I placed a collective order with a couple of friends from Belgium, through e-mail. Everything was ready and awaiting us. As there was some confusion with which bottles they did or didn’t have, I gave my printed list to the clergy who checked everything off as me and my friends had lunch in the restaurant in the same building. Rating for the food is btw actually for the Good Shed restaurant, but since they seem to be cooperating, it seemed stupid to add another entry. The food was delicious by the way. Afterwards the clergy and me went through the whole list again, checking off every bottle. It was quite a bit of work, but then again, they were selling a lot of beers at once. ;-) An amazing selection, one of which we in Belgium are sometimes jealous, at least the people who like some American imports. Only reason I subtracted 2 points is because of the non availability of about 10% of the stuff I ordered, especially because I waited for their updated list only 5 days before ordering and had to gather orders from a couple of friends. Despite that, some bottles were sold out anyway. Friendly staff, just in general a good place. Maybe a bit expensive, yes. But then again, England in general is pretty expensive, so there you go. Will visit again next time I cross the channel with the car.

The best place for online Kernel Beer sales. need i say more. Nice friendly staff, very helpful, easy delivery. all told i was very pleased with my shop.

Great place very near the station. Tiny, but a very good selection and reasonable prices. Helpful and friendly staff. I really didn’t need to buy something for the train, but couldn’t help myself!

I have experience only with their web page. In fact this is not webshop, you can choose from a list and write to Andrew and he sends you box. Anyway, nice selection of British, American and other beers. Communication is smooth, packaging is perfect, box would survive moon landing. prices are reasonable. I like this "web shop"

A nice little corner of an artisanal food shop in Canterbury. A great selection of some tough to find bottles from small and distinguished breweries in Europe and North America. If you’re ever in the area, a must visit!

Great little beer stall in the market just near the train station. Selection is really good for canterbury, with a lot of rare and hard to find stuff available. Got myself a cold Coconut porter for the train ride. Great place, friendly service and definitely deserving your business.

Well hidden bottle shop in between a big food hall. Three big shelves full with special bottles of great beers, but they also have their price. It is a good location for getting new beers when you rarely find something new or want to have special stuff.

Tiny stand in the middle of an excellent bustling permanent farmers/market/deli experience. The owner has additional beers (mainly the pricier ones) available on request, which there isn’t room to display. The beer range is excepttional - there are very few boring brown bitters here, instead the stand is dominated by the likes of Brewdog, Mikkeller and The Kernel, including many rarities which I’ve never seen available anywhere else. The owner is very knowledgeable about his stock, and very friendly too. Prices are on the high side, but this is compensated for by the sheer quality of the selection. All in all this is a great addition to the UK beer scene. A couple of words of warning - there’s a discount for CAMRA members, but only on Thursdays (unfortunately I was there on Friday - grrr!). Also, the restaurant at the Goods Shed (not linked to the Bottle Shop) serves wonderfully-flavoured locally produced food, but the portion sizes are miniscule - bring a big bun or something to fill you up afterwards!
