Before you go

4 pubs is plenty for an afternoon. Ask for halves, drink water between pubs and eat something; each stop shows an alcohol-free choice where the pub lists one. Drinkaware has more.

Beers come from each pub's own list, read on 22 and 23 October 2026; guest ales change, so ask at the bar. We don't hold opening times: check before you set off. The sun is for a clear day.
