Branch
Magazine of the Year 2025!
Pints West is
officially the best CAMRA branch magazine,
having been awarded Gold in the national
competition at the annual CAMRA Members’ Weekend
in Torquay in April. Editor Steve Plumridge and
the Pints West team of contributors from across
Bristol, Bath and districts have received ten
awards in the competition since 2002, and this
is the seventh overall win. The judges
particularly praised the colourful and
attractive layout, the mix of local and national
campaigning features, cider, pub and brewery
news and reference to less well known beer
styles.
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post-pandemic, without whom Pints West could not
be published.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.
