About CAMRA

The Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA) has been supporting Real Ale for over 45 years. Its 180,000+ members (the largest consumer movement in the UK) are tasked with calling at all of the country’s pubs during the year, trying the beers, and recommending the best for the Good Beer Guide – copies of which are on sale here. They organise beer festivals throughout the country, and support others, such as this one, by offering their expertise and services free of charge. Anyone can join, and you are free to be as active as you like, from coming to meetings and joining us on trips to breweries and festivals, usually at reduced rates or even free, or just drinking the beer and learning more about it.

They campaign for various issues, such as ensuring every pint glass is a full pint rather than too much head, and do their best to keep breweries and pubs open.
