CAMRA, the Campaign for Real Ale, has launched its first ever national online pub guide – whatpub.com - dedicated to helping the public find the best pubs to suit their needs across Britain.
Following an extensive two year project by thousands of CAMRA volunteers, whatpub.com features 47,000 pubs, around 36,000 of which serve real ale - making the site the most definitive online guide to real ale in the UK.
Whatpub.com offers over thirty different search fields ranging from dog friendly pubs to those that offer newspapers or live music, making the results customizable to each person's individual preferences.
Another key feature is that of the 35,800 real ale pubs featured, around 22,000 have details of the real ales being served - taking the guess work out of a visit for real ale lovers.
Andy Shaw, CAMRA Director said "CAMRA has developed WhatPub to be the ultimate online pub guide for all pub-goers.
"It may even help encourage people who have stopped using pubs regularly, since WhatPub will help them find the ideal pub to suit their needs."
WhatPub entries are written by local CAMRA members and then approved by dedicated branch volunteers.
A full entry offers a description and pictures of the pub, the address, opening hours, who owns it, lists the regular real ales they stock, states whether the pub offers Guest Beers, highlights the pubs main features e.g. availability of food, gives a map of where the pub can be located, sat nav reference, OS reference and highlights the local transport available.
