The success of The Dun Cow,  Sunderland in the National Pub Design Awards is celebrated. Another celebration was an award to Roosters Brewery... but you need to read the magazine for more details.

The Branch Chairman gives his thoughts on his favourite 5 pubs , and there is a report about Casque Mark. Three local micro pubs feature and there is a fascinating article on gluten free ales.

OUR BRANCH MAGAZINE - CAMRA ANGLE WINTER 2015

The winter edition of CAMRA Angle , the quarterly magazine of the Sunderland and South Tyneside branch of CAMRA, has  just been published. Copies are now being distributed to real ale pubs throughout the area , and beyond . 

Our annual beer festival, Octoberfest , in Sunderland is featured, as well as news on pubs, breweries, and beers. 

There are reports by our roving reporters  from Maxim Brewery, Heritage Pubs in Cambridge and in Sunderland, plus Kent Micro Pubs. 

There are pub features on Vesta Tilley's and Port of Call, both in Sunderland. 

The Camerons Brewery 150th weekend anniversary is reviewed as well as a  report on the Regional Pub of the Year Presentation in the Steamboat in South Shields.

Now, as proof reader of the CAMRA Angle,  I have a confession to make. The branch logo has been changed from Sunderland Wear Bridge ( left ) to a miners lamp, as depicted on the beer festival T shirt, right.  I have been wearing this  for over a month ( it has been washed twice before you say anything !), and never noticed it !! Advertising is wasted on me. 

Issue 42 is rounded off by a guide to using Whatpub, CAMRAs online pub database , and a  pub quiz.
