Welcome to the website of the Birmingham Branch of the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA).
Birmingham CAMRA is made up of volunteers from both sexes and all works of life. They are united together in the common cause to promote pubs within the city and championing the Campaign that has been instrumental in bringing cask ale, cider and perry to our local hostelries. In the Birmingham branch this has never been more important. Members give up their hard earned time to do this and meet up and liaise with one another, mainly over a pint or two!
In this website you will find pages containing the latest pub news; the goings on of the branch, from branch meetings to socials to committee meetings; downloads of our award winning newsletter 'Out Inn Brum'; downloads of the many guides produced for the city; the LocAle pubs in the branch; information about ale and cider; and contact emails to get in touch.
Birmingham is still dominated by big pubcos, such as Punch, Enterprise and M&B and it is true that this can limit the choice of ales on offer. However through the hard work of many members, Birmingham pubs are seeing a resurgance of cask ale and the opportunity to drink so many different beers in ever increasing. Yet Birmingham CAMRA is always forward looking and always wanting to better the city-wide ale and cider scene.
