Looks like I just missed Brainy Pool. I was there 3pm on the 23rd August.
I quite this level of serendipity. I had a comment on my walking blog about Brid's cross brewery after my last stage of the GM Ringway. 12 miles walked today and I noticed a 4x4 with the branding on the spare wheel cover, then a little later on route, a black van in their livery.
Baum was also recommended to me - and on arrival, a full tap takeover, as its their first anniversary. Then someone talking about them on here. What are the chances!
Anyway, the pub is exactly my type - a well converted shop, full of nick nacks, with some comfy seating in the windows, wooden floors and a nice bar.
I went for a delightful Under the Eildon Tree - a WC IPA. Wish the trains had been running as planned (storm Lillian) and I could have stayed longer.

Called in here after the interesting museum next door. it’s Rochdale’s destination pub; on my visit it had a tap takeover by local Brids Cross brewery “inspired by folklore”. Comfortable and quirky interior and a friendly barman who will talk to you about the beers. enjoyed the Baum Rabbit, an easy drinking pale ale. Food is served and looked good and hearty.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Baum
Interesting and award-winning pub, but perhaps not quite all it might seem? Housed in part of the Rochdale Pioneers building, but the age of the pub itself is uncertain? It also appears more food led than I was expecting, although none is served on Mondays (which happened to be the day I visited). Anyway, there is a lot to like in the various small seating / dining areas around the traditional-looking L-shaped interior (with the restaurant upstairs). I found six interesting real ales - including the unfined Repeater from Full Circle (£3.50 with Camra discount) - and a draught cider on the eight handpumps.
