Doesn CAMRA support the small and regional brewer tie?
CAMRA supports the continuation of the beer tie provided it is operated as a genuine partnership and not exploited, as it currently in many cases. It is the practices of the large non brewing pub companies that are at the heart of CAMRA’s campaign. Where the beer tie is operated by members of the Independent Family Brewers of Britain (IFBB) tied publicans are given extensive support. This support means that the IFBB have a low turnover of tenants compared to the industry as a whole.
