I hope this link works for you, but the Sair Inn
in Linfit seems to be no longer brewing it's own.
Article sez beer is brewed in a pub in nearby Marsden,
which must (??) be the Riverhead Tap (Osset??).

Any info appreciated.

is this up to date , The GBG 2008 still list it as brewing, I thought
since riverhead had been taken over by ossett, all brewing was done at
ossett/.

The last report I had, from a week ago, was that Copper Dragon beers were on 
sale at the Sair.

To correct your brewery information, Ossett took over both Riverhead 
Brewery, Marsden and Fernandes, Wakefield and are operating the two smaller 
breweries independently, with their own ranges of beers which have quite 
different character from Ossett's own, thus providing more choice in 
Ossett's own pubs in addition to some independent guests.

Ossett's head brewer oversees the others to ensure they maintain quality but 
they are free to maintain and develop their own beers. Riverhead's 
recently-appointed brewer is a long-standing active CAMRA member.

Cheers,

Paul

Wull ... those of us that get to the Sair but onece a year
would really REALLY like to know. Is Ron still there?
Do they still draw their own ales (yummy!)? Come on.
Some one of you Brits need to straighten this out. It's
only a few miles from Huddersfield, Marsden, or
Holmfirth, all towns with great real ale pubs.
I need to arrange next Spring's itinerary.
Help is needed here.

With the state of the pub trade as it is, (29 pubs closing every week, at 
the last count?), situations can change very quickly so what's true now may 
not still be so next Spring.

Having said that, hopefully not much will change at the Sair. As far as I am 
aware, Ron is still there but has had some problems with his brewing staff 
so there have been breaks in brewing. An excellent resource for the area's 
pub information, regularly updated, is http://www.aswiftone.blogspot.com/ so 
I suggest you keep checking there.

Cheers,

Paul

I just live across the valley so I'll call in sometime over the next couple 
of days & see.

Well it took a bit longer than thought, but made it up yesterday for a 
couple.

Very busy with a swing band insdie and people all over the road...but...

No Linfit beer. Just 3 of the hand pump operating and all dispensing 
Eastwood.

Whether this is permanant or just the lack of a head brewer; no idea.

Cheers

Mark

You did not think to ask behind the bar then, on my only visit to the
all nations the only beer available was Simkiss
