The Sportsman wins Huddersfield CAMRA Pub of the Year 2012, and the award was presented on a busy Friday night as part of their 3rd birthday celebrations. The sympathetically restored heritage pub features eight handpumped beers, with LocAle beers featuring prominently – and none more LocAle than the Sportsman Brewing Company beers that are brewed in the cellar. The pub also features a good range of real cider, including Pure North from Netherthong.
