- Good Beer Guide Launch
Tuesday 29 September 2026
Award Presentation

14:00 - 19:00 : The Lamb, 94 Lambs Conduit Street, London, WC1N 3LZ
Copies of the Guide will be available at each Launch to Members at £11, a considerable saving on purchasing with postal delivery (£13.99+ postage). In order to ensure we have enough copies at each event, we need orders in advance.Option 1 - place an order by email back to me, stating number of copies and at which Launch you will collect. Payment on collection at the Launch can be by cash or you can pay by using the on-line system. BUT I must have the order in advance please.
Option 2 - order the Guides and pay in advance using our new On-Line Payment tool. The order form you will need to complete will ask for which Launch you intend to attend. From my perspective this is a much better way to pay. here is the link - https://tckty.camra.org.uk/e/596/good-beer-guide-2027
Any queries do ask.
