Ian Lynskey, pub manager at The Old Manor (Bracknell), which, in the 2019 guide, celebrated its 20th consecutive year, said: “It is our belief that if a licensee serves an excellent pint of real ale, then everything else in the pub, including customer service, quality of food and atmosphere, are likely to be of an equally high standard.” Of those, 83 pubs have been listed in the guide for the last five consecutive years, highlighting not only a remarkable achievement, but an excellent consistency in the quality of real ale served to our customers.ĬAMRA () members visit thousands of pubs each year, including ours, to check on the quality of real ale and to see whether those pubs’ beer is of a high enough quality to be worthy of inclusion in their guide.Ī CAMRA spokesman said: “Each of the Wetherspoon pubs listed in the Good Beer Guide 2019 deserves its place in the guide. The 2019 CAMRA Good Beer Guide, the UK’s best-selling beer and pub guide and ultimate list of pubs serving tip-top real ale, includes no fewer than 243 Wetherspoon pubs, consistently more than any other pub company.
