VOTING IS CLOSED YOUR CHANCE YOUR VOTE DON’T WASTE IT
VOTING CLOSED

It is that time of year again when we ask for your help in doing our annual voting for the Good Beer Guide. As with the last couple of years, we have made the form available online at http://www.see.camra.org.uk/viewnode.php?id=48585. There is a spreadsheet version that can be filled in and emailed back to ku.gro.armac.ees@GBG. THE LAST DATE TO RECEIVE POSTAL or EMAIL ENTRIES IS WEDNESDAY 31st JANUARY 2024.

If you don’t wish to vote, you can still help the branch by submitting Beer Scoring. Details on how to use the beer scoring scheme can be found at www.whatpub.com. Log-in using your membership details and select “beer scoring” at the bottom of the page. These scores help us to evaluate pubs throughout the year and will be used in the selection process for the GBG now and in the future.

Whatever you decide to do, let me thank you for being a member of the Campaign for Real Ale. As well as the benefits you receive as a member, your subscription helps to support one of the largest and most successful consumer movements in Europe with just over 150,000 members. Your membership is key to the national objective which is to ensure that British beer drinkers continue to have the chance to drink well-kept ale in as many pubs, clubs and recreational venues as possible around the country.

If you wish to support the branch further, we will always be pleased to see you at any of our branch meetings which are normally held on the first Tuesday of the month. Go to www.see.camra.org.uk for dates and venues. We look forward to welcoming you to a meeting in the future, during 2024.

Please can you fill in the form below or the online version to nominate any pubs in our area that you think are worthy of an entry into the Good Beer Guide 2025. A map is printed below that shows the boundaries of the South East Essex CAMRA branch.

These pubs must sell real ale (as defined by CAMRA) in consistently good order and obviously you must drink in them regularly to know this to be a fact. This is not a vote for the Good Pub Guide – but a vote for our flagship publication the GOOD BEER guide.

So please take your time to fill in the form and eit

YOUR VOTE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE, PLEASE FILL IN THE FORM TODAY!

We are also seeking nominations for our branch Pub of the Year (POTY) 2024. This is a pub which has made a significant contribution to the cause of Real Ale in the last year. For 2020, 2021, 2022 & 2023 this was Mile and a Third, Westcliff and the West Road Tap in 2019. Club of the year for the last 10 years has been South Benfleet Social Club.

Please remember to return your forms by WEDNESDAY 31ST JANUARY 2024 by post or email

Thank you for taking the time to complete and return the form. This is much appreciated!!

Finally, please do visit pubs this year – they really need your help
