This will kill the business model of 327 food led pubs. The remaining 655 pubs who don’t serve substantial meals will be forced to close completely.

In the exclusive video, Alison is sharing her passion for cider and perry as an appreciated fine bever- age. She will outline the principles behind matching food with different types or styles of cider, and help viewers understand the science behind how their senses experience food alongside cider. It comes as CAMRA volunteers around the country celebrate Cider Month, which runs throughout the month of October to coincide with the harvest season. It also coincides with the launch of a new Crowd- funder campaign to help fund a new book from Gabe Cook entitled Modern British Cider, which aims to shining a light on the rise of craft cider and the incredible diversity that exists within cider in the UK today. Alison, who is a drinks educator with 20 years of experience, as well as the co-founder of the Grape Society and landlady of the Hop Inn micropub in Hornchurch, said: “It has been great to work on this video guide for CAMRA’s Learn & Discover. I hope it educates a new generation of cider drinkers about the art of cider and food pairing and that they can put their new skills into action with family and friends!” CAMRA’s online learning platform is home to lots of new content from writers, educators and experts. There will be new guides, articles, videos and audio content added every week exploring everything there is to know about beer, cider, perry and pubs. Alex Metcalfe, CAMRA’s Learning & Discovery Manager says: “Alison Taffs has a great passion for cider and perry, and I am excited to share her appreciation and two decades of knowledge with a new audience on our Learn & Discover platform.” All new content includes free intros and tasters so visitors to the site can get a feel for the full access enjoyed by CAMRA members.

The sweet- ness of cider isn’t too appealing, and you’d like something a little more sophisticated than a fruit juice. So, what DO you have…? Binary Botanical, a female founded British beer brand, was launched to provide a lighter, beer-like alternative to a glass of wine. This superior refresh- ing beverage is available with both 4% and 0.5% alcohol for consumers choosing to drink less or not at all.

T’old Codger’s Corner Most beers are brewed using hop cones, howev- er Binary Botanical is infused with organic leaves, which normally go to waste, making Binary a pro eco-choice as well as a health-conscious decision. The hop leaves give a tangy, not bitter, taste making it the perfect accompaniment for many dishes. Based on the outskirts of the South Downs Nation- al Park, the founders of Good Living Brew Compa- ny were tired of not being able to find an alcoholic drink of around 4% that was neither bland, bitter nor sweet, so they set out to create something new. Bi- nary Botanical is lower in alcohol and calories than wine, vegan, and gluten and sugar free. This light, refreshing beverage pairs wonderfully with an array of cuisines, and also makes the per- fect base for cocktails – try it in a stemmed glass with cucumber and rosemary or with orange and fresh mint as a spritz alternative.
