CAMRA members have until 1 November to vote for their favourite beer in the Champion Beer of Britain competition.
Judging for the competition takes place roughly a year prior to announcement, with individual nominations, local and regional competitions. Traditionally it concludes on the opening day of the Great British Beer Festival when a panel of judges decides the winning brews.

Winning the Champion Beer of Britain is the ultimate honour for UK breweries and has helped put many into the national spotlight.

This year, CAMRA members will be able to select beers according to new beer style remits, after a review was undertaken of the official CAMRA Beer Styles. There are now 12 different categories, with two additions from the original 10.

Beer style categories now cover:
Milds: up to and including 4% ABV
Session Bitters: up to and including 4.3% ABV
Premium Bitters: 4.4% – 6.4% ABV
Session Pale, Blond and Golden Ales: up to and including 4.3% ABV

You can read more in-depth about the categories in the Beer Style guide leaflet. CAMRA members will be able to vote using a special voting portal, and in a range of different categories. This is your chance to nominate your favourite beers for the Champion Beer of Britain competition, and it would be great if some of our local breweries were in the running, so don’t forget to vote and help ensure your favourite pint is in with a chance to win.”
