The Good Beer Guide is the longest running and best-selling guide to the best pubs for real ale in Britain.

Compiled by CAMRA's 82,000 dedicated volunteer members, it is the definitive source of information on where to find cask-conditioned real ale in tip-top condition. The Guide also contains a unique Breweries section, listing all the breweries — national, regional and micro — that produce cask beer, along with tasting notes compiled by CAMRA experts.

The Great British Beer Festival 2008

Earls Court, London will again host CAMRA's Great British Beer Festival
this year, running between Tuesday 5th August and Saturday 9th August.


65,000 people attended the 'Showcase for British Beer' last summer and
we expect the same numbers to come along this year to participate in the
festival fun!


Over 500 tasty tipples from the smallest microbreweries and large
regional brewers have been handpicked for visitors to try. These will
include wheat beers, ciders, golden ales, stouts, porters, bitters,
milds, bottle-conditioned beers, perries and traditional foreign beers
from around the world.


The festival is not only about the ale! Visitors will also be able to
enjoy food, live music, entertainment, games, tombolas, and quizzes in
the comfort of a family friendly atmosphere. Why not catch up and
socialise with friends, unwind after work, or just soak up the festival
atmosphere!
