Your Rotherham CAMRA Magazine

I began my editorship with the last issue of Inn Touch, with a plea for all to ‘Get Inn Touch’. The magazine; a separate entity from other publications of CAMRA, the Campaign for Real Ale, is an attempt to inform. Throughout the UK different branches have formed, some come together in great cities and others are found in nooks and crannies.

Inn Touch, is OUR way to communicate outside the town, to invite visitors to our locale. This is key to Rotherham’s economy and serves our growth. Yet, Inn Touch is also OUR way to communicate with each other. Rotherham CAMRA would like to hear from you, be it: your views on the best eaterie, music or drinking establishment in town; a business or individual that deserves a special mention or could do with a pint; or your views on anything BEER. These are just suggestions, and I encourage you to Get Inn Touch by writing to the magazine (Adam Rodgers, 39 Renway Rd, ROTHERHAM, S60 3EU; email: adam1983rodgers@yahoo.co.uk ) so that you can contribute to the growth of Inn Touch and the prosperity of Rotherham. Some of you have already begun to do this, let me reiterate all your views are valued and I do my best to share all views in the magazine. Inn Touch will be written with my minimal input; as I said in the last issue, I am not trying to communicate my own views, or those of CAMRA, the Rotherham Branch or committee.

One key issue raised by a town centre publican is that Inn Touch ‘…is not focused enough on

Rotherham…’ Agreed; rest assured that we as a branch will try harder. Yet information volunteered by the public is invaluable. The more people on board, the more sources of information we have, so we can get our facts right, keep them up-to-date and make Inn Touch more about Rotherham. We encourage you to join us and want you to let us know how to up the ante, to make CAMRA more interesting and worthwhile. In doing so, I do not doubt we will make Rotherham more interesting, worthwhile and entertaining.

Let me know whatever ideas and information you have. This is your Rotherham CAMRA magazine. Let’s make it as interactive as possible.

I am trying to inject new ideas in each issue and would be keen for feedback in regards to my puzzles page. Perhaps you are more skilled than me in something; so teach me, or let me know about some software package that will make my life easier.

Finally, let’s remember what is important…

Keeping pubs open: Keeping Rotherham open.

We have just been given a great new football ground; a great venue for the next beer festival, and err… some football. Let’s make the most of our town.

Adam Rodgers Editor of Inn Touch

Beer tax e-petition reaches landmark 100K signatures Mass Parliamentary Lobby announced for December 12th- over 1,000 people expected to participate CAMRA, the Campaign for Real Ale, is delighted to celebrate with other members of the beer and pub industry as the Government e-petition calling on the abandonment of the beer duty escalator has exceeded the 100,000 signatures needed to trigger a Parliamentary debate. The petition is only the 12th Government epetition - out of over 16,000 submitted - to have ever reached the 100,000 landmark.

The beer duty escalator, introduced by the last Government in 2008, and continued by the coalition, has successively penalised Britain’s beer drinkers by automatically increasing duty levels by 2% above inflation every year. As a result, tax on beer has increased by over 40% since 2008, with a third of every pub pint now being swallowed in tax. Over 4,500 pubs have also closed over this same period.

CAMRA has invested significant resources into campaigning against the beer duty escalator, and major breakthroughs in the lead up to the petition securing 100,000 signatures included over 15,000 beer drinkers adding their names to it over the course of the Great British Beer Festival, held at London’s Olympia at the beginning of August (7th-11th).

With a Parliamentary debate now in prospect, CAMRA is ramping up the pressure on Government by announcing it is to hold a Mass Parliamentary Lobby in Westminster on Wednesday December 12th, with over 1,000 people expected to attend from all corners of the UK to voice their discontent at punitive tax increases on Britain’s National Drink. Attendees will be asking to speak to their respective local MPs, and seeking their support to protect the nation’s historic beer and pub industry.

Work is well underway installing the brand new 20 barrel state of the art plant from respected German manufacturer Moeschle. Their brews will be available for the first time at The New York Festival.

This makes Rotherham Branch’s first Festival even more of a don’t miss event! It will take place at Rotherham United’s football ground, the New York Stadium, in the prestigious 1925 Suite, which has a panoramic view over the football pitch. As well as beers from Chantry Brewery, there will be 45 more to choose from and cider, wine and bottled beer from the USA on the Big Apple bar.

Food from Eric Twigg Foods of Pukka Pie fame will be available at all sessions. £5 Entry by ticket only, available from September 30th at the following outlets: Hare and Hounds, Rotherham Church House, Wath Chequers, Whiston Loyal Trooper, South Anston Kelham Island Tavern, Sheffield From 5th November, any tickets left will only be available from Reception at The New York Stadium. CAMRA members (with card) will get their first pint free!

Opening times: 5-11pm Friday 9 November 12noon-11pm Saturday 10 November The Branch needs volunteers (you have to be a CAMRA member) to help set up, run and take down the Festival. Free refreshment sponsored by Wentworth Brewery will be on hand for set up and take down. You can volunteer online at www.rotherhamcamra.org.uk/new-york-beerfestival.

Pub Awards

Sheffield’s Kelham Island Tavern Is Camra’s Yorkshire Pub Of The Year 2012

9

The Jemmy Hirst at the Rose & Crown in Rawcliffe was runner up in the completion. It is owned, and run, by Simon & Jane Hicks, and is described in the new CAMRA Good Beer Guide 2013 as: “Outstanding village pub, well-known in the region and winner of the Yorkshire Pub of the Year competition in 2011. A warm welcome awaits you from the owners, locals and Bruno the dog.

Book-lined walls and an open fire provide a haven on a cold winter’s day. It is the perfect place to sample the four guest ales; a traditional cider can also be enjoyed. The patio or river bank beckons in warmer weather.”

The Kelham Island Tavern in Sheffield has been named the winner of the ‘Yorkshire Pub of the Year 2012’ competition by the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA).

18 pubs were nominated for the prestigious title, and a panel of judges then individually visited each nomination and scored them against strict criteria: Quality of Real Ale, Community Focus, Atmosphere, Campaigning, Style/Decor, Service and Welcome, and Value for Money.

The Kelham Island Tavern is situated in Russell Street in Sheffield, and is no stranger to wining this prestigious title, having won it in 2004, 2007, 2008, and 2009. It is owned and run by Trevor Wraith and his team, and is featured in the new CAMRA Good Beer Guide 2013: “This small gem was rescued from dereliction in 2002. Twelve handpumps (sic)dispense an impressive range of beers, always including a mild, a stout and a porter, so you are sure to find something to suit your palate. In the warmer months you can relax in the pub’s multi awardwinning beer garden.”

CAMRA’s Yorkshire Regional Director, Mick Moss, said: “The standard of the competition was very high, but the Kelham Island Tavern just ‘ticked a few more boxes’ as far as the judges were concerned.”

Mick will present framed certificates to the licensees of the winner and the runner-up in the near future, when special presentation events have been organised.

The Old No. 7 in Barnsley and the Old Cock in Otley finished in joint third place. For more information and comment please contact: Mick Moss (Regional Director) Tel: 07885 345796 E-mail michael.d.moss@bt.com Trevor Wraith (Owner of the Kelham Island Tavern) Tel: (0114) 272 2482

Yorkshire Club of the Year 2012

WAKEFIELD’S LABOUR CLUB IS NAMED CAMRA’S YORKSHIRE CLUB OF THE YEAR 2012 Mick will present framed certificates to the representatives of the winner and the runner-up in the near future, when special presentation events have been organised.

ROTHERHAM CAMRA’S PUB OF THE YEAR 2012.

The Wakefield Labour Club, in Wakefield – appropriately also known as The Red Shed -- has been named the winner of the ‘Yorkshire Club of the Year 2012’ competition by the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA).

The Red Shed is situated in Vicarage Street in Wakefield, and the club’s President is George Denton. It is featured in the new CAMRA Good Beer Guide 2013 (launched on the 13th September): “The Red Shed is an old army hut that has survived the redevelopment of the area.

Home to many trade union, community and charity groups, quiz night is on Wednesdays and live music plays on the second and last Saturdays of the month.

There are three rooms; two can be hired for functions. An extensive collection of union plates and badges is displayed over the bar, and numerous CAMRA awards adorn the walls. The beers are usually from micros nationwide.

CAMRA’s Yorkshire Regional Director, Mick Moss, said: “The Club of the Year competition attracts clubs of all types; from traditional working men’s clubs to sports and social clubs. The enthusiasm shown by the management and staff of these clubs to promote and sell quality real ale, helps to ensure that their membership also includes discerning drinkers.”

The Black Lion at Firbeck, as presented in the last issue, is Rotherham CAMRA’s Pub of the Year 2012. 18-months ago, landlord Phil Rogers bought this pub from Punch Taverns and has enjoyed every success. This pub is not the easiest to access, but it is the editors opinion that Phil has nurtured a diamond in the rough that is always worth making the trip to visit.

2013 Pub of the Season nominations are:Carlton Park, Rotherham Leeds Arms, South Anston Cavalier, Ravenfield Hind, Whiston Please submit your scores using the online form on the website www.rotherhamcamra.org.uk

Music and Beer

Pints, Percussion & Plectrums Many establishments in our town entertain our drinking times with music. We are fortunate when publicans promote live music, showcasing the talents of cover artists, musicians performing their own craft, or when others allow any of us to do our own thing. Many establishments spring to mind, but information needs to be kept up-to-date.

Rotherham Open Mic Productions (R.O.M.P) continue to stage their fayre at The Bridge Inn on the first Friday of each month. Gav Roberts pumps out poetry and spoken word performances that provide an alternatively thriving community in Rotherham Similarly, Clive Davis continues to hold an Open Mic Night on the first Wednesday of each month.

Both these events are well-received and the management at both pubs and the work put in by all is mentionable and motivating. Yet both events would welcome more participation, so if either are your thing, get yourself out to them. You will feel the benefit of doing so, as each atmosphere is welcoming, open and friendly.

Although the pub does not offer real ale, the SNAFU on High Street deserves a mention, as it is up for sale. This comes as a blow as the management and staff and volunteers have all made SNAFU, THE entertainment venue in Rotherham for years. If anyone has an idea of how to save the pub, so it does not become another inevitable retail outlet, please step forward.

On a number of occasions, people have uttered the words ‘Rawmarsh’ and ‘Mashers’ to me. Yet on searching the web and finding a website which has not been updated for nearly two years, I am nonethe-wiser. So if anyone can shed a little light....

I have popped in venues where like-minded individuals have taken my email address and promised to volunteer information, but they are

yet to do so, which is a shame as I can only get in so many pubs, and I am unaware of the music that is nurtured within the walls of so many that I am unaware of. So...

If you have any information at all about pubs who promote real ale and a real love of music, then please Get Inn Touch. That way, we can support: local musicians; the sale of real ale locally (and hopefully local real ale, also known in CAMRA circles as LocAle); and the long-life of our evening musical entertainment

CALLING ALL UNDER 30 REAL ALE FANS

Rotherham CAMRA has a separate segment in order to enable young people to enjoy real ale, and learn more about brewing via social events.

If anyone has any ideas about how to make CAMRA more exciting for us youths, please email Adam: adam1983rodgers@yahoo.co.uk or Andrew rotherhamyoungcamra@yahoo.co.uk

A Wider View CAMRA is the largest single issue consumer organization in Europe, with around 140,000 members we have a voice that is listened to in the UK & EU Parliament’s. But the threat to pubs is bigger than ever and I would urge each and every one of you to sign the ‘Save our pub’ E petition at www.saveyourpint.co.uk DO IT NOW because once a pub is lost it’s gone forever.

centre, now the picture is very different. Not only is there a good choice of pubs and clubs selling Real Ale there are a large variety of Ales available.

The pubs and clubs are all different, some offer live music, some have sports TV. Some are quiet, others offer food and some have recorded music.

So there is a pub to suit all tastes for a good night out.

As well as campaigning, CAMRA branches (esp.

Rotherham) have a good social side when members go out on Pub crawls, Brewery visits and Beer festival visits. CAMRA organises over 300 of these a year; they are a good showcase for local beers (Locale) as well as beers from further afield, that you may normally find in the local pubs.

I have a saying, Every CAMRA member is a Membership Secretary so encourage ALL your beer/lager drinking friends to try a pint of delicious Real Ale you never know they might like it and help us with our campaigns. Remember Real Ale is not cold, but it is cool.

Not that long ago you would have struggled to find a decent pint of Real Ale in Rotherham town
