Good Cider Guide

The Good Cider Guide was a book published occasionally by the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA) listing cider and perry outlets and producers in the United Kingdom. It is the cider equivalent to their annual Good Beer Guide.

Details

The intention of the book is to be a "guide for real cider-loving connoisseurs". The most recent edition, published in 2005, contains details of over 550 cider outlets (pubs, clubs and off licences), and claims to include every producer in the UK.[1] Producers and outlets are listed separately by county with maps and full directions, and there are also articles about cider and perry history, cider and perry making, and cider abroad.[2]

As a CAMRA publication, the emphasis is on producers and outlets that produce "real cider", as defined by CAMRA.[3]

The book has been published by CAMRA since 1996.

gollark: Bold of you to assume I did any anyway.
gollark: Hmm, the most convoluted and reasonably practical way to do this would be to... use my RTL-SDR to listen to Radio 4, but hook it up to my server, run it through some kind of audio compression thing, somehow figure out how to stream the resulting audio over HTTP, then stick that on my website.
gollark: Hmm. I should really listen to these announcements... what's the most convoluted way to do that, I wonder.
gollark: Wait, the UK?! I live there!
gollark: It comes with many features like:- account on the osmarks.tk RSS reader and wiki thing- you can get random bits of the SQL dumps if you want- access to some of the osmarks.tk™ media library and memeCLOUD™- priority support - maximum turnaround time of 10^36 years
