Do you want good beer, served in pleasant, friendly surroundings and at a fair price? So do we! After all, it doesn't seem a lot to ask. But BEWARE: these things can not be taken for granted. Pubs and beer are big business, and there are those accountants who would have us all drinking overpriced, bland, national products in tacky theme bars. That's why CAMRA, the Campaign for Real Ale, continues to fight on behalf of you, the British drinker. |
Good beer: CAMRA promotes greater appreciation of traditional ales through awards to those who brew or sell them at their best, through 150 annual beer festivals, and through the best-selling Good Beer Guide.
Pubs: CAMRA supports sensitive and appropriate alterations to pubs, but fights the crass vandalism and expensive, unnecessary theming that is all too often seen. We help to obtain Listed Building status for historic pubs, and promote the importance of "the local" to the community it serves.
Consumer rights: CAMRA campaigns for a fair deal for the customer, on issues such as full-measure legislation and licensing reform. We act as a vigorous consumer voice in Westminster, Whitehall and Brussels.
Choice: CAMRA promotes the independent brewers so you can have something other than national brands, and we fight for a licensee's right to stock a guest beer which is free of any outside influence, ie landlords can stock what THEY (and their customers) want to drink.
JOIN THE FIGHT: The impact of CAMRA's efforts is down to the support of over 90,000 (and growing) members who fund our work and lend weight to our voice. The more members we have, the bigger the differences we can make. If you support what CAMRA is doing for Britains drinkers, why not help by becoming a member.
