CAMRA NI Director Ruth Sloan went on Radio Ulster to chat about why the Minister for Communities was wrong to reject plans to modernise Northern Ireland's antiquated licensing laws, and why consumers deserve a better choice of beer, cider, pubs and taprooms.
If you'd like to see more local beers and ciders in pubs near you, consider lending your voice to the campaign.

We *are* furious. Northern Ireland's outdated licensing system is in dire need of reform, and today's setback is a huge blow to the incredible independent brewers and cider producers here.

An image of a quote from the accompanying article, it reads: "We now need to make sure the Executive and MLAs from all parties give their backing to dragging our licensing laws into the 21st century so that locals and tourists alike can benefit from a better choice of pubs and brewery taprooms showcasing locally produced beer and cider – not just a limited range of bigger pubs serving the same old beers from global brands." Ruth Sloan, Chair of CAMRA Northern Ireland
