It's in lots of pubs round here. Must admit I haven't tried it, the name tends to encourage me to try something else.
Never heard of it.Twitter seems pretty disgruntled. I suppose it's good to see a Bitter as Champion. Pity nothing from Kent or Sussex in the lists.

I've had a few Church End beers around Warwickshire ,IMHO they are fine without being exceptional so surprised by the accolade . CAMRA often seem to choose modest ABV beers as Champion Beer and maybe this is a sop to the anti drinking lobby.
The choice of Golden Ale winners is more like it,very glad that Blue Monkey get some recognition for exceptional brewing,personal view and all that.
