SUMMARY:Change of Date - West Central CAMRA Regional Social & Award Presentation
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Friday 2 October for a relaxed day of great beer\, real cider and good company as we visit two outstanding Good Beer Guide pubs in Dursley.\nOur day begins at The Hoptician\, an award-winning micropub that opened in May 2024 in the former premises of a local optician – hence its distinctive name. Five carefully selected beers are served alongside locally produced real ciders\, with additional outdoor seating available for fine weather.\nAt 1.30pm\, we will present The Hoptician with the West Central CAMRA Regional Cider Pub of the Year Award.\n\nJust a four-minute walk away is The Old Spot\, a former National Pub of the Year. This charming 18th-century free house takes its name from the famous Gloucestershire Old Spot pig and offers a wonderfully traditional atmosphere\, complete with low ceilings\, a welcoming wood-burning fire and an impressive collection of brewery memorabilia. It serves up to eight regular real ales and is an excellent place to enjoy lunch before the afternoon’s activities.\n\nTravel & Timings\nThere are regular train services to Cam & Dursley station from both Cheltenham and Gloucester. From the station\, Dursley is approximately three miles away and can be reached by the Stagecoach 65 bus or by sharing a taxi with fellow attendees.\n\n\n12.00–12.30pm – Meet at The Hoptician for presentation at 1.30pm\n\n\n3pm – Move on to the Old Spot\n\n\nWe hope you can join us for what promises to be an enjoyable social afternoon celebrating two excellent pubs and the very best of real ale and cider.\nBrett Laniosh – Regional Director\nAndrea Bennett – Regional Cider Coordinator\nPeter Bennetts – Area & County Coordinator
