Hilltop Brewery Tap, Pontefract

Formerly a Londis convenience store, but it can't have stocked much as its recent incarnation is of micro-pub proportions. The compact interior is semi-rustic, as you would expect, but the counter is big enough to feature six handpumps and a pair of multi-tap keg founts. The brewery's Blonde and Classic Bitter (£3.00) were available, together with two from Chin Chin, Shiny Reactor and a Lilley's cider.

Good news. The Hamelsworde Brewery Tap, as was, re-opens today as the Hilltop Brewery Tap, having recently taken over by the Hilltop Brewing Co, based in nearby Conisborough.
