Pilsen Beer Pins and Buttons
Description: In 1975, the Campaign for Real Ale invented the modern beer festival when it staged a five-day event with more than 50 beers attended by 40,000 thirsty members. Forty years on, we asked those who were there – volunteers, Campaign leaders and drinkers – to share their memories. Chris Bruton (organiser): A Cambridge branch member suggested a beer festival in the Corn Exchange at an early meeting in 1974. The main credit should go to the late Alan Hill – then a Personnel Manager at Pye in Cambridge. The festival made a significant profit, and the donation to central funds was essential to keep the Campaign afloat during a difficult period.
Description: A vintage-look design of the word PILS (referring to the German Pilsner Beer) across an old beer bottle cap. A perfect gift for beer lovers, bartenders, brewers and anyone enjoying their lager and pilsner. Its minimalistic style and subtle colours make this design ideal for various occasions.
