Welcome to the MICROPUB Association

The Micropub Association is a brand new membership-based orgainsation committed to promoting and celebrating all that is great with the concept of the micropub.

The Micropub Association can only be as good as the membership base so your ideas, thoughts, opinions and general meanderings are very much appreciated.

Remember, no 'tabbing'! You can browse the website for free but as a member you’ll be able to enjoy member discounts and contribute to the Forum. You’ll also be able to contact me to get advice on how to open your very own micropub.
I can certainly recommend the lifestyle!

My hope is that the Micropub Association will be a place where like-minded real ale lovers can share their micropub experiences. The Micropub Association will also be a platform for the new and emerging micropubs to tell the beer drinking community about themselves.

The Micropub Association doesn't intend to mimic the excellent work that CAMRA has done over the years to promote the licensing trade and the views of all real ale drinkers, rather the Micropub Association recognises that there is something pretty unique in the micropub phenomenon which merits the formation of a separate complementary group.

If you haven’t already done so, join today
Play your part in the micropub revolution!

The featured Microbrewery this month is Mighty Oak Brewing Co., judged to be the 'Champion Beer of Britain 2011' by CAMRA.  Roger Protz, of the final judging panel, said: “Oscar Wilde was a stand-out winner, universally praised by the judges for its quality. Once again a dark beer has triumphed over

paler beers. “It’s a beer with great depth of character, and for the style has a lot of hop bitterness as well. It proves that a dark beer can be refreshing even in very hot weather.”
