Half a mile down the road takes me to the Shears Inn. An historic pub surrounded by old mills with decent cask options, but the interior 'refurbishment' is pretty crap (especially when you see what they've done at the nearby Three Pigeons). Having a pint of the Stancill Ginger Pale 🍻

Some very wet and muddy hiking today leads me to a place I've always wanted to visit, The Midgehole Working Men's Club aka The Blue Pig. Some very well kept cask here 🍻

Another short bus journey takes me to Hebden Bridge. The Vocation Brewery is close by and their taproom in the town has 4 cask and 20 keg options 🍻

Last stop hiking for today, it's gotten dark very quickly, so will continue by bus. £3.60 for a pint of very nice pint of bitter 🍻

Another few miles hiked, visited a couple of hilltop towers (locally known as the Salt & Pepper Pots) before heading down the hill to my next pub. Pint of Boltmaker this time 🍻

It's not great weather for hiking across Yorkshire moors between village pubs. Worth it when the beer is this good though. Lovely pint of Hetton Pale from Dark Horse Brewery.

Just imagined a mother ghost giving her ghost kid a right clip around the ears in this museum while shouting "So you did lose it playing in the bog, you cheeky monkey, you said a pig stole it!"
And the kid responding: "It's been over a 1000 years mum!"
But mum's never forget.

A short bus trip from the centre of Lille takes me to the Aux Enfants Terrible brewery tap. Lovely set up on what looks like an old farm 🍻

Only made it to one pub last night as it was so good just stayed there. Highly recommend La Capsule in Lille. 28 taps, 27 of them French! None of your Belgian rubbish here 😉🍻

After a somewhat traumatic trip from Aberdeen (over 12 hours...), finally made it to Lille. Nice view from the hotel rooftop bar and a decent enough Belgian IPA to start with.
