CAMRA Good Beer Guide
CAMRA’s flagship publication is the Good Beer Guide, which lists all of the pubs serving the best real ale in the country. It is available as a book and as an app for your phone. The app also includes all of the data from CAMRA’s WhatPub guide, which lists virtually all the pubs in the UK, even if they do not sell real ale and is invaluable when you’re out and about.
