Edinburgh brewery Caledonian's Deuchars IPA (often seen in JD Wetherspoons pubs) is this year's Champion Beer of Britain, as selected by the blind tasting panel at the GBBF. The Silver winner was RCH's East Street Cream from Somerset and the Bronze Triple FFF's Moondance from Hampshire.
Two local breweries managed to impress the judges: Oakham JHB (last year's overall champion) won joint Bronze in the Best Bitter category and Nethergate Umbel Magna won Bronze in the Speciality Beers.
