Beard Friendly Pub of the Year, Cock Tavern, Hackney makes it into 2020 Good Beer Guide minus the beard
The Beard Liberation Front, the informal network of beard wearers, has said that it is pleased to see that the current Beard Friendly Pub of the Year, the Cock Tavern in Hackney, is in the Campaign for Real Ale’s 2020 Good Beer Guide published today.
The Guide remains an indispensable record of some of the best beer and pubs in the UK.
Unfortunately the Guide entry, perhaps for reasons of space, notes that the Cock is friendly but misses out the word ‘beard’.
The campaigners say it is a regrettable omission particularly as the Cock’s beard friendliness is of almost legendary proportions.
BLF Organiser Keith Flett said, we’re pleased to see the Cock in the 2020 Good Beer Guide but please don’t forget the beards alongside the excellent beer.
