About CAMRA
CAMRA (The Campaign for Real Ale) is a national organisation which promotes real ale and publicises where it can be found and enjoyed, while attempting to improve quality and choice. It also fights to save pubs and breweries from closure, and to preserve the character of the traditional British pub with all its cultural, historical and architectural aspects.
