  • Beer of the Festival
    Welcome to the 25th Shrewsbury Real Ale Festival The first Shrewsbury CAMRA Beer Festival took place 26 years ago. As we missed one year, that means that this year is our “silver” anniversary festival, an occasion for more than usual celebration. We’ve also brought the festival forward towards the more drinker friendly month of September. We are proud to showcase Shropshire beers. Almost every local brewery is represented, and will be in the Shropshire Brewers’ Challenge competition. We are also hosting a regional CAMRA Champion Beer of Britain competition, involving the top six Old Ales and Strong Milds nominated by West Midlands CAMRA members. This year’s “away” focus is on beers from the North East, with many from new breweries or those rarely seen in this region. The final group of beers consists of those we just couldn’t resist and could come from anywhere the UK. All our 80 real ales will be served through had-pulls as intended by the brewer or brewster. The earlier date means we’ve included more ciders and perries this year, and we have an even wider selection f country wines, so there should be something for everyone. As in previous years, the Festival is quiet in all sessions, so you can concentrate on beer and conversation. Please relax and enjoy yourself drinking responsibly. Festival Coordinator Thanks to our printers, PrintFast Shrewsbury. Any mistakes in the text are our own, not theirs. What is CAMRA? And why should I volunteer to help out? CAMRA is a not-for-profit organisation which aims to support the key British institutions of pubs, and traditionally brewed drinks.

  • Newsletter 1
    Wigan CAMRA Branch Newsletter ey up !! October 2015 Welcome Welcome to ‘Ey up!!’ - the 2nd edition of our monthly branch newsletter which we are producing for a 3-month trial period. We would appreciate any feedback about this newsletter whether it be good, bad or indifferent, via e-mail to [email protected] Local Brewery News ALLGATES BREWERY: The brewery is running to absolute capacity at present selling beer sometimes before it is brewed. A new beer, called Nellie Melba (4.3%), has been brewed from a recently acquired Australian single hop Melba. Monthly beer ‘Patchcroft’ has been well received and is a personal favourite of the head brewer, Jonny. Look out for the ginger- infused ‘Hardybutts’. ‘Dairy Pit’ and ‘Blue Sky Tea’ have recently been bottled. PROSPECT BREWERY: A double dose of bad luck and bad news during September. Firstly, thieves brazenly stole two Karcher pressure washers (worth over £3000). The theft happened at lunchtime whilst brewing was in operation and three members of staff were working in the adjoining unit. Then, notification was received from the landlord terminating the lease on the brewery on November 8th 2016. The need to relocate the brewery is now of primary importance. On the beer front, sales of core range beers has remained very strong over the summer months and additional brews are now being undertaken to facilitate bottling of beers ahead in readiness for the Christmas rush. Bottling is now being done locally by Morrow Brothers in Buckshaw Village, near Chorley. HOPHURST BREWERY: All 3 beers in their ‘specials’ range have had great feedback and will be brewed again.
