CAMRA - North Hampshire Branch This Page:           Say Yes to a Full Pint Published: May 2007   SAY YES TO A FULL PINT ...over 12,000 people already have   New figures from CAMRA show that a whopping 26.6% of pints served in pubs contain less than 95% beer. CAMRA is taking its campaign for a full pint straight to the top by launching a national petition calling on the Prime Minister to put an end to short beer measures. Full Pints Key Facts: 26.6% of pints are more than 5% short measure Short measure costs consumers £481 million a year, or over £1.3 million a day Pubs serve customers 208 million more pints than they buy in   The current law means you may receive a pint only 90% full. The Government is allowing beer consumers to be cheated out of £1.3 million every single day. As a beer drinker you stand a one in four chance of being served a pint of beer that is 5% short or more. In the 1997 General Election the Labour Party promised that it would protect consumers from short beer measures. Ten years on the Government are yet to keep its promise. Please sign up to the National Full Pints Petition to call on the Government to keep to its word and end short beer measures.   CAMRA needs your help to ensure you receive a full pint of beer every time. Please sign CAMRA's National Full Pints Petition calling for an end to short beer measures.   << BACK TO ARTICLES ^ BACK TO TOP ^
