Have you ever wondered how pubs are selected for the Good Beer Guide?
Ever wondered why your favourite pub isn’t in The Good Beer Guide?, or thought why on earth have they included that pub?
The National Beer Scoring System (NBSS) is a 0-5 point scale for judging beer quality in pubs. All CAMRA members can score their beers which will help CAMRA branches in selecting pubs for the Good Beer Guide. NBSS is an easy to use system that has been designed to enable all CAMRA members from any part of the world to report beer quality on any pub in the UK. CAMRA branches use these scores to help them determine which pubs from their area to include in The Good Beer Guide.
How do I score my beer?
Scores can be submitted through https://whatpub.com/ and you must sign in using your CAMRA membership number and password.
What do I need to record?
- The location and name of the pub
- The date you visited the pub
- A score out of 5
- The name of the brewery and beer (optional)
Remember you are scoring the beer quality NOT if it is your favourite style, or not
There is a lot more information about WhatPub and the NBSS on the CAMRA website
