Pubs. Pints. People.

For the penultimate episode of this series, the Pubs. Pints. People. hosts are discussing beer design and labels! From pump clips to cans, a label can tell you more about a beer than just the ingredients and the ABV. An amazing piece of artwork can entice a drinker, and convey something about the brewer all at once. The first interview is with author Pete Brown, whose book Beer by Design: The art of good branding was released via CAMRA Books last November - he's chatting to host Matt Bundy. Then, we hear from Simon Yarwood of “The Epicurean”, who runs three bottle shops in Manchester, and Boz Berry from the Burton Road Brewing Company - they're speaking to Owen Ralph.Links mentioned in the episode:Check out CAMRA's social media profile picture frames: whypubsmatter.org.ukVolunteer with CAMRA: camra.org.uk/about/work-with-us/volunteer-with-camraGet involved with Beer Day Britain's #CheersToBeer on 15 June: www.beerdaybritain.co.ukRead CAMRA's newest 10 campaigning milestones: camra.org.uk/50-years/50-campaignsPre-order Modern British Beer: shop1.camra.org.uk/product/modern-british-beer/Have you visited CAMRA's new What's Brewing platform?
