The Guide surveys 4,500 of the best pubs across the UK and is considered the definitive way to find the best pints of IPA, Ale, Lager and other beverages across the UK. As well as covering 293 of the very best pubs across the Channel Isles, Dorset, Hampshire, Isle of Wight and Wiltshire, it keeps track of brewery numbers. This is the 52nd Good Beer Guide edition and for more information about the CAMRA Good Beer Guide 2025, click here.
