RL and real ale -help needed ! : Fri Aug 01, 2014 5:15 pm  

Evening folks wondering if any of you Super League Fans can help me ?

I’m currently building a website, mainly as an exercise to teach myself how to build one, however when I was coming up with subject matter I decided to combine my two loves of rugby league and real ale , a combination that seem to go hand in hand anyway ….
From my years of spectating and quaffing around the lower leagues , I’ve managed to put together a fair few ‘trails/crawls’ of pubs / bars starting /finishing at Championship RL grounds or transport hubs ,with decent ales on tap(not necessarily obscure ones , just well kept ‘non keg fizz’ will do) that are welcoming to RL fans.
The idea is then to map them out & follow up on contact info / opening times /beers served / kids welcome / club shirts policy’s etc, all info that might be useful to visiting fans, all on the site, with an opportunity for fans to add comments,, photos and reviews as well.
My visits to SL grounds (as a Keighley follower) are few and far between any help to suggest possible trail for your team would be massively appreciated. All help will be acknowledged on the site .

Thanks and any thoughts anyone ?
Rach

Counting House
Glass House
Running Horses
Phoenix
Tank Bar (more boutique premium bottled lager than real ale)

All are within 10- 15 mins walking distance and serve real ale or premium lagers

I would definitely add The Cricketers to that list and lose Tank who I am sure only open evenings anyway and as you say have no draught ale.

They serve Robinsons ale "Saints Gold". Its delivered electronically though and isn't great but I guess marginally better than the usual John Smiths / Tetleys smoothflow stuff.
