Just published is Ale Cry 139, the Winter 2024 edition of the CAMRA Central Lancashire branch quarterly magazine (on-line version available here). Always eagerly anticipated, the magazine includes the usual good mix of pub and beer related articles, with the Eldon in Preston being revealed as the branch's latest Pub of the Season winner. As well as the regular articles like Chorley Chatter, Preston Parade, and South Ribble Scene, this edition includes a Riley's Rambles which looks at Poulton-le-Fylde, a CAMRA Heritage Pubs feature which looks at three pubs in the North East, while there is also a write-up on the branch's recent day trip to Chester. Copies of Ale Cry 139 will be available in pubs and clubs throughout the branch area in the coming weeks.
