	Real Ale in Corwall

Every town has a real ale pub and it seems that most towns in Cornwall are around eight to ten miles apart. A patient driver would be a better bet for a pub crawl. I would try the Driftwood Spars, St Agnes; Bird in Hand, Hayle; Blue Anchor, Helston; The Dock, Penzance; The Globe and Alehouse, Truro - oh, there are dozens of the blighters.

We try to keep the heritage of real beer out of the hands of the multinationals based in Belgium, France and the good old US of A. We must protect our regional and national beers from extinction. Any comments any one?

Regional beer is better than it ever was - more choice and availability. Micro breweries, guest ales in many pubs and many large breweries have improved eg. St Austell. Many years ago beer in Cornwall used to be terrible but now its much improved - Skinners and Sharps make some good beers, as do the Cornish micros. Much or all of the improvements would be because of the action of CAMRA. I looked at the Cornish CAMRA site this afternoon and thought it was very good. I liked the story of the bus trip from Penzance to Newbridge, St Just, Pendeen and back.
