Abigail Newton - The Gongoozler (Part 1)
Our guest this week is on a mission to keep our pubs serving a wider range of pints. It鈥檚 Abigail Newton - vice-chairman of CAMRA (Campaign for Real Ale).
"We鈥檝e all been there: a beautiful pub reveals itself in the distance, resplendent in the gloaming hour. No alehouse has ever looked so inviting, so you decide to head in for the perfect pint of ale. But wait; what鈥檚 that they鈥檙e serving on draught?! 3 lagers and a fruity cider?! Where鈥檚 the real ale? Where鈥檚 the bitter?! For the love of God where鈥檚 the mild?! It鈥檚 a common problem, but thankfully this week鈥檚 guest is on a mission to keep our pubs serving a wider range of pints. It鈥檚 Abigail Newton - vice-chairman of CAMRA (Campaign for Real Ale).
Abigail is possibly the most passionate pint defenders in the world. Like us, she is always fixated on the small details that make pubs such special places and is committed to promoting the importance of taverns as community hubs. She鈥檚 also on a mission to make alehouses as inclusive as possible, and is often found singing the praises of one of the finest exports this country has to offer: the humble pint. "
