Pub and Beer Guide for the Midlands

An almost exhaustive guide to pubs in the Midlands, with a page on virtually every town and village in the Midlands, plus articles, features, and too many other features to mention here. However this site would seem to be undergoing a revamp and much of the information that was available is now missing. Hopefully this is only temporary and if the updating continues and the information returned, this site has the potential to be an excellent resource.

Bass Ale

Probably Burton's most famous export. This site under reconstruction when we visited, after the acquisition of Bass by Coors Brewers.

Michael Jackson - the Beer Hunter

Famous for his books and TV series, Jackson's site contains a wealth of material on brewing and beer-related topics, including this page on Marstons Brewery and the Burton Union system...

Cask Marque

The organisation sponsored by the brewing industry to raise standards of cellarmanship.
