CAMRA launches revised mobile app for Britain's best-selling guide to beer and pubs
4,500 quality pubs at the touch of a button and now for just £5!!

CAMRA, the Campaign for Real Ale, has today made it even easier for mobile phone users to find the very best pubs around the UK with a revised version of its Good Beer Guide 2010 Mobile edition.

As the mobile version of Britain's best-selling guide to beer and pubs, Good Beer Guide Mobile offers full details and reviews, beer lists and tasting notes for over 4,500 urban and rural pubs, independently selected by CAMRA's 110,000-strong membership. Information about each pub is very comprehensive and even states whether pubs offer lunchtime or evening meals, a pub garden or pub games. Users can search by name or location and interactive maps help them navigate to their pub of choice. Available for iPhone and many other handsets, the app costs just £5 (plus standard network charges). See www.camra.org.uk/gbgmobile for more information.

Simon Hall, CAMRA Managing Editor, said:

‘This app puts Britain's best-selling guide to beer and pubs at the touch of your fingertips.

‘As an indispensable companion for any pub goer, cramming all 638 pages of the pubs section into the edition, CAMRA will supplement this app later in the year with a brewery section add-on, giving a directory of over 700 breweries currently operational around the UK and details of their regular beers. This will include tasting notes for more than 1000 real ales. We believe that this is the most comprehensive app available for beer lovers and pub goers.”

‘This latest CAMRA innovation is all about giving users a guaranteed way of tracking down the best pubs in Britain that offer outstanding beer quality, customer service and value for money, and is the only app of its kind to be contributed to by 110,000 people!'
