- The Central Southern Regional Pub of the Year - Final
Tuesday 20 June 2023
The Central Southern Regional (CSR) Pub of the Year (PotY) 2023 area winners have been announced and arrangements for the final round have been finalised. We would like as many members as possible to get involved so that the results are as fair and representative as possible. It's also a great opportunity to visit three of the very best pubs in Central Southern Region. If you'd like to participate in the judging, you must visit all three pubs listed below. Please note that scores are on a range of 0-10 and not 0-5 as for normal beer scoring. Please enter your beer scores via WhatPub or the GBG App - otherwise they will not be seen by that branch.
The pubs to be judged are as follows:
Bell, Aldworth (Berkshire area)
Bird in Hand, Princes Risborough (Buckinghamshire area)
Butchers Arms, Balscote (Oxfordshire area)
The process and rules can be found in the attached document (CSR PotY 2023 Process Final), as is the judging form in both Excel and PDF formats.
I prefer that you submit your scores using the attached spreadsheet, but if you don't have Excel or the ability to open Excel spreadsheets, you may print off the attached PDF version, complete that and return either a scanned copy or a photo of it, as long as it's legible.
Completed forms should be returned to me at ku.gro.armac.noxos@sbup by 11:59pm on Monday 24th July 2023. I have extracted some basic information about the three pubs from WhatPub, e.g. address, telephone number, website, Facebook, Twitter, opening times, meal times (where applicable), transport, and map in the attached "Central Southern Region PotY 2023 Final pubs - details from WhatPub" document.
