Calling Home Brewers Wednesday 1 October 2025 – Sunday 17 January 2027 This branch is again running a competition for local home brewers, to find five beers to be showcased on Bar Nouveau at next year's Stockport Beer & Cider Festival.
Weekday Wander - Winging our way to Urmston Tuesday 3 November 2026 10:45 We will be wing our way (rather than bombing* out to) Urmston today. Why these aviation references? Urmston was the birthplace of Roy Chadwick , chief designer for A V Roe, who designed the iconic Avro Lancaster and Vulcan bombers (among others). * Though if this had been the 5th, it might have been more appropriate!
Winter Warmer Wander Friday 13 November – Monday 28 December 2026 A five week long pub trail wandering around collecting stickers for drinking winter ales, namely Stout, Porter, Old Ale or a Christmas Ale.
Mild Magic - Peoples Pub of the Event award Thursday 19 November 2026 14:00 The Mild Magic participants have spoken and the Stalybridge Station Buffet is their favourite pub - so we are giving them a gong.
Stagger - Portwood and Stockport North Friday 20 November 2026 19:30 Might be better described as Newbridge Lane to Heaton Lane as Stockport North could, arguably, include Heaton Norris and further north.
November POTM - Sidings Thursday 26 November 2026 Not being on the main road. this Levenshulme pub is often overlooked, Once discovered it is a little gem, serving not only Holts beers but the wider community with many events. Being but a stride from the Fallowfield Loop, it offers a stopping off point if partaking of a Sunday stroll.
Weekday Wander - Rochdale and Castleton Wednesday 2 December 2026 10:50 Usually the December Weekday Wander will try to incorporate a selection of pubs partaking in Winter Warmer Wander. See the Mild Magic - Peoples Pub of the Event award (https://ssm.camra.org.uk/viewnode.php?id=290884) to fulfil this. The December Wander is a return trip to Rochdale with the addition of Castleton.
