TWO Dorset breweries have been featured for the first time in the Good Beer Guide this year.

Barefaced Brewing Ltd from Bournemouth and Brewers Folly Brewing in Stanbridge are two of the new breweries in the 2019 guide.

Tom Stainer, chief communications Officer at CAMRA says: “It’s fantastic to see the number of new pub entries in the Good Beer Guide 2019 and the continued growth in local brewing.

“We’ve seen such sweeping changes across the brewing and pub scene over the past year with brewing becoming more collaborative and socially-minded, and pubs continuing to diversify to cater for all tastes with the continued increase in micropubs, tap rooms and community-run pubs, each improving choice for drinkers.

“This is the 46th issue of the guide – a book that has become an essential companion for those with a passion for real ale and discovering the best places to find it.”

Brockenhurst Brewery Ltd is also included.
