We also survey our local pubs and run the annual Pub of the
Year competition, which on a local level has been won by the Holly Bush in
Belbroughton this year! We use our survey data to create whatpub.com, a
directory website which helps people to find a pint of real ale in their area.
The best pubs are then put forward into the CAMRA Good Beer Guide, copies of
which are available today from the CAMRA stand, along with a great selection of
other beer-related books.
After much government lobbying, we also abolished the beer
duty escalator; defending the cost of our favourite pint when other production
costs are on the uprise. You may not think much off a penny off a pint each
year, but the cost today may have been considerably more if the beer duty
escalator had remained.
Our organisation today has over 170,000 members,
with over a thousand of these residing around the Redditch, Bromsgrove and
Droitwich area.
