Branch
Magazine of the Year 2023!
Pints
West is officially the best CAMRA
branch magazine, having been awarded first place
in the 2023 competition at the CAMRA Members’
Weekend in Sheffield at the end of April.
Regular readers will know that this is not the
first time that the Pints West team of volunteer
writers, led by editor Steve Plumridge, has been
recognised for the quality and mix of articles
covering Bristol, Bath and districts’ pub and
brewery news and CAMRA’s campaigns locally and
nationally. This is Pints West’s sixth overall
win since 2002 (with several other awards for
‘most improved’, ‘highly commended’ and
‘runner-up’ since 2001).
There are over 200 CAMRA
branches, most of which publish magazines (find
links online to them HERE),
and competition is strong.

Congratulations
to all the volunteer researchers, writers and
photographers who make Pints
West such an engaging read, and to
Steve for his editing and design skills. Pints
West can be found in hundreds of pubs and other
outlets in the branch area thanks to the many
volunteers who give up their time to collect and
distribute it; copies also find their way to
pubs and beer festivals further afield, and to
postal subscribers all over the country.
Pints
West has to be self-financing, so particular
thanks go to all our advertisers over the years,
and especially for those who have supported us
post-pandemic, without whom Pints West could not
be published. Getting the word out is key, so we
are particularly grateful to the pubs that act
as distribution hubs: the Cornubia and Lime Kiln
in central Bristol, the Parish Pump in Worle
near Weston-super-Mare, and the Royal Oak in
Twerton, Bath.
