CAMRA’s Good Beer Guide 50th Edition

The Good Beer Guide has evolved and developed over the last 50 years and this edition is another step in its evolution.

This year we have made the Guide much more user-friendly and accessible, featuring regional entries introduced by the award-winning writer of 50 Years of CAMRA, Laura Hadland, and bringing together pub and brewery information for the first time, making it easier to find your new favourite local ale.

The foreword for this anniversary edition has been written by HRH The Prince of Wales.

NEW: Introduction to regional sections.

Writing for CAMRA, Laura Hadland has shown that she has developed and gained invaluable insight, understanding and appreciation of the CAMRA members and volunteers and their place in the beer landscape of the UK. We are delighted to have her on board again for this special anniversary Good Beer Guide.

• New Regional Introductions by award-winning beer writer Laura Hadland
• Entries for more than 4, 500 of the UK’s best pubs, in rural and urban areas, with details about beer, food, pub gardens, accommodation, family facilities, disabled access and transport links.
• The Good Beer Guide is completely independent. Pubs are regularly checked by local CAMRA volunteers and, unlike most other pub guides, we make no charge for entries.
• Lively and informative colour features on beer, pubs, brewing and consumer issues.
• Unique brewery listings for all UK real ale breweries – micro, regional and national – and their regular beers. This edition features almost 1, 900 breweries and more than 7, 500 beers, plus information about brewery taprooms.
