Purity Brewing Co., based near Alcester, Warwickshire, has started 2010 on a high after one of its beers was named CAMRA’s Champion Beer of the West Midlands.

Pure Gold, which is a refreshing golden ale, took the top award in the Best Bitter Category.

Made from English Maris Otter and Cara Gold malts plus Northern Brewer, Fuggles, Hereford Golding and Styrian Golding Hops, Pure Gold is an easy drinking beer with a taste bud satisfying dry and bitter finish.

Paul Halsey, Purity’s Managing Director, said: “Thank you to CAMRA for this award and of course, thank you to the public for making Pure Gold the popular brand it is.

“Pure Gold has not only gathered a fan base amongst existing ale drinkers, but also attracted many new fans who were previously lager drinkers. So if you’ve not tried Pure Gold, or any of our other brands, I would definitely recommend giving them a try.”
