How It Works

  1. Order a pint or half of real ale (a LocAle if available) in a participating pub and ask to have your form stamped.
  2. Collect at least ten stamps on a Trail to qualify for the prize of a T-shirt. There are different coloured shirts for each Trail, so you can enter one, two or three forms as you wish.
  3. Send your entry, by 31 May, to Ale Trails, 9 Willingham Road, Over, Cambridge, CB24 5PD or hand your form(s) in at the Membership Stand at the Cambridge Beer Festival (21 – 26 May)
  4. Anyone visiting all the pubs on all the Trails will go into a draw for a very special prize.
In addition to taking part in these trails, you might wish to score your beers at the National Beer Scoring System.
