The West Cumbria Branch of CAMRA has voted and decided on entries in the branch territory for the 2023 edition of the Good Beer Guide.

However, this information will not be released until the official launch date of the Guide in the autumn of 2022.

There is no charge made to pub owners for entry in the Good Beer Guide and pubs are surveyed by volunteer members of CAMRA branches nationwide.

The sole criterion for entry in the Good Beer Guide is as the name suggests based on the consistent high quality of the beer dispensed.

The final decision on Guide entries is made at branch meetings when possible entries are put to a democratic vote.

If a pub has just changed hands it is not eligible for the Guide until the licensee has been trading for a year.
