A Visit to Cloudwater Brewery Tap Room
Whilst having some free time in Manchester we decided to pay Cloudwater a much overdue visit. Their taproom venue is located in the unit next door to the actual brewery.

Magic Rock brewery & tap – Huddersfield

Situated roughly 15 minutes walking distance from the town centre Magic Rock is tucked away in an industrial estate, with the unit providing ample space for the actual brewery, a large taproom and outdoor space which is perfect for summer…
BrewDog bars – Leeds
We’re pretty lucky up here in Leeds to have not just one but two great BrewDog bars. Only a few cities around the world can boast such a fact, including Aberdeen (obviously), Edinburgh and London (can we really count London though?).
