Real ale
What's pouring
Real ale and craft ale that keeps moving.
The OC is Mirfield's free house for rotating cask ale and craft beer. We would rather keep the website honest than pretend a static beer list stays current. For the live line-up, use Real Ale Finder.
How we approach beer
Choice without the snobbery.
We are not trying to build the biggest wall of badges. We want a bar people trust: familiar pints alongside rotating cask and keg that give you a reason to try something different.
Some beers come back because customers love them. Others may only appear once. That is part of the point.
