    You're correct OB. As one of the organising committee I'm kinda expecting to be at Rochdale Beer Festival.

    I can make the 21st October or 4th or 18th of November.

    Can't do the 28th October either though.

    In fact the only date I could possibly do is the weekend of the 18th....

    1. Kings Head
    2. Wood Street
    3. Sportsman
    3a. Magic Rock
    3b. Slubbers
    4. Vulcan
    4a. Northern Taps
    4b. Warehouse
    5. Plumbers
    6. Grove
    7. Star
    8. Rat & Ratchet
    9. Head of Steam

    Then the additional walk is accommodated between the Sportsman and the Vulcan, with those that have done that extra bit then skipping straight to the Plumbers and the Grove.
    That's a good list of 13 pubs worth visiting with only the Magic Rock Tap having a problem opening time .So why not just leave the Magic Rock as a wild card,and visit the other 12 in the order shown .12 pubs is about an average hit list for these all day PuG crawls. Anyone not wanting to do the longer walks (to Slubbers and Star ) can spend a little longer in the Sportsman /Vulcan or Grove/Rat & Ratchet

    The Star also has late opening, 5pm on Fridays. Another central pub is the Parish (Pump) although not a classic isn't bad. I would also visit the Sportsman after the Kings Head and then go to Wood St, then on to the central/southside pubs as Sheffield Hatter suggests.

    Provisional booking now made for a hotel on the ring road by the canal for the 18th and 19th so that myself and Mrs G can make a weekend of it..
    Mrs G googled Huddersfield and found it acceptable as apparently it has a fair few boutique and vintage shops, whatever they are ?
