Welcome to our straightforward guide on scoring the beer you love and discovering how pubs and clubs across the UK stack up in terms of beer quality. Whether you're a dedicated CAMRA member or a cask ale enthusiast, your journey to support and promote excellent beer starts here.
Your input helps us curate the Good Beer Guide and ensures we promote venues serving top-notch cask ale. It's also a fantastic way to connect with the community and share your passion for great beer.
These beer scores are also used to support CAMRA's Beer Quality Accreditation.
Scoring your beer couldn't be simpler and can be done in any pub or club listed on our site. Just click to add a beer score after your visit. You'll input the date and rate the quality of the beer served. It's a great way to share your experiences and guide fellow beer lovers.
The National Beer Scoring System (NBSS) is a 0-5 (0 = No cask ale available) point scale for judging beer quality in pubs.
It is an easy to use system that has been designed to assist CAMRA branches in selecting pubs for the Good Beer Guide and also monitor beer quality by encouraging CAMRA members from any part of the world to report beer quality on any pub in the UK.
If you are a CAMRA member, we want you to tell us about the quality of beer in the pubs you visit.
