Camra’s top Grimsby, Cleethorpes and Scunthorpe pubs to visit next week

CAMPAIGN FOR REAL ALE PICK THEIR BEST PUBS FOR BEER LOVERS

WHEN it comes to good beer, Camra knows exactly where to find it.

For 48 years, the Campaign for Real Ale group has been putting together a guide with the best pubs serving real ale, beer and cider.

It has recommendations on where to go whether you’re in a town or the middle of the countryside.

The guide is completely independent and is based on evaluations by Camra members.

With May 17 fast approaching, , and pubs and bars being allowed to invite drinkers inside once more, you may be looking for new places to try.

Nik Antona, Camra national chairman, said: “Camra are delighted that indoor opening is on track to go ahead from May 17, so customers can enjoy the social and wellbeing benefits of being back inside the local – not just in its beer garden.

“This will also help the thousands of pubs, particularly smaller community locals, that do not have outside space and who desperately need to start getting money through the tills again. “Whilst this next step is very welcome, we aren’t out of the woods yet.

Distancing and table-service only restrictions will still mean many pubs can’t operate at full capacity with many continuing to struggle to make ends meet as a result.

“The Government should continue to support the beer and pubs sector in the months and years ahead by backing Camra’s campaign to cut the rate of duty on beer served in pubs – with the savings passed on to publicans and consumers.

“This would help pubs to compete with cheap supermarket alcohol and encourage responsible drinking in the supervised setting of the community pub.”
