News UK – CAMRA bans discriminatory labels at beer festival

Beers with “discriminatory names or artwork” have been banned at CAMRA’s flagship event, the Great British Beer Festival, taking place this week in London. All of the festival’s beers, ciders and perries have been checked to ensure they meet CAMRA’s charter and code of conduct. The festival chose Stonewall as this years charity of choice and will be contributing proceeds in support. The announcement is a result of high profile figures in the UK’s beer industry putting pressure on lobbying bodies like CAMRA to act on sexism in the trade.
