This is the branch magazine for the Sunderland and South Tyneside CAMRA and is a substitute for a printed version which we are unable to publish and distribute. 

There are three feature articles this time ;  

In the summer Mrs Ken and I had a pleasant trip to North Northumberland and found a really smart pub and a brewery in the middle of nowhere. There is also a mini pub crawl just outside our branch area, and a second article about whisky, from India this time. 

There are the regular membership, pub, pub protection and brewery updates. Its been a fact that despite the lockdown, there are still stories out there, some of which occasionally change. There are two items like this :- 

It was announced just over that Marstons Brewery had received an offer from a private equity firm. This offer was nevertheless rejected by Marstons, after having gone to press !

Another change is that Maxim Brewery had announced in the New Year their Saturday drive thru openings would be monthly. Yesterdays drive thru was very successful, so I am pleased to announce, they will reinstate their weekly Saturday openings !  

Anyhow, there is more, including some CAMRA 50 stuff  and the quiz
