The winning beer is described as a classic old-style English porter; creamy, full-bodied and packed with flavour. It is the second year a porter has won the overall Champion Winter Beer of Britain.

Dunham Massey owner John Costello, had this to say on the win:

“We’re made up!  We are a relativelynew brewery who love making traditional styles like porters, milds and stouts, and I thought our porter would do well but I can’t believe we’ve won overall Champion – I’m over the moon. The CAMRA [Champion Winter Beer of Britain] awards mean everything to us. It’s the highest accolade a dark beer can earn.”

The Champion Winter Beer of Britain competition judges the best of the best in terms of classic winter warmers – from thick, rich, dark porters and stouts, to sweet and strong Barley Wines.
