Pub crawls
Pick a part of town, what you'd like to drink and how many stops. We find pubs close together that pour it, put them in a short walking order and say what to try at each, with the sun out front when you'd get there.

How the crawls work
A pub counts for a style when its own list names a beer of that style; for real ale, when it pours cask ale. The planner tries every pub as a starting point, adds the nearest pubs that pour what you chose, then walks them in the shortest order. Walking distances are the straight line plus a third for the streets, at an easy 4.5 km an hour, allowing 45 minutes in each pub. Lists were read on 22 and 23 October 2026: guest ales change, so ask at the bar.
Nightclubs, members' clubs and restaurants are left out. Pubs without a list online only join crawls of any pub. We don't hold opening times, so check before you set off. Drink at your own pace: halves are fine, and every stop shows an alcohol-free choice where the pub lists one. Drinkaware has more.
