There could, of course, be two possible explanations for this absence – either they were produced but none survive or have been found so far. Alternatively, that the brewery concerned did not produce paper labels on bottles at all. The breweries in this series are listed here in alphabetical order Adcock & Pacey Co Ltd, Melton Mowbray (now published - NL 4/2020) Adnams & Son, Newbury Baker Hope Brewery, Hertford Blencoe & Co, Cannock Boulters Shire Oak, Walsall Castle Sons & Woods, Banwell Copple Bothers, Ecclestone F A Crooke, Guildford Brewery Giles & Harrap, Merthry Tydfil Henry Spencer, Whitehaven Jarman & Co.

Well worth a read but, sadly, not illustrated with the labels mentioned. The NL Editor’s challenge to members to provide the images seems to have gone unheeded! “Championship Beers” identifying awards at Brewers Exhibitions etc were featured in the following NLs – 1/2016. 3/2016, 5/2016, 1/2017 and 4/2017. An e-book was produced by Keith Osborne and released in April 2020 combining the 5 parts.
