  • Draught Copy
    Free Newsletter Draught for the Maidstone & Mid-Kent, Gravesend & Darent Valley and Bexley areas of Kent Copy Spring 2015 No. 178 DRAUGHT COPY—LOOKING BACK As we go to press on this, edition 178 of Draught Copy, I took a look back at the very first issue I ever became involved with exactly nine years ago. I joined as typesetter, the man who puts together the printed publication, a job I still do, despite being editor as well now. In 2006 we ran to 32 pages per issue, and now we are 50 percent thicker at 48 pages. But the price has remained the same! What impresses me most, though, is the brewery roll-call in Kent. In edition 142 our county had just ten breweries listed here: Goachers, Hopdaemon, Larkins, Millis, Nelson, Ramsgate, Shepherd Neame, Swan, Westerham and Whitstable. All ten are still going strong, but have been joined by twenty more. We have said goodbye to Black Cat, which has moved to East Sussex, and are welcoming the tiny microbrewery of the Isla Vale Alesmiths, who are now making a name for themselves in the pubs of Thanet. And I mean tiny, too, just one half barrel per brew. Looking forward, it would seem this burgeoning trend of new breweries is set to continue. I wish we could say the same of pubs, which are in fact diminishing at the rate of 31 closures a week! CAMRA has an urgent and active campaign—Pubs Matter—with its own website, www.pubsmatter.org.uk. I would urge readers to visit this site, take a look at page 10 here, and give this campaign all the support you can.
