About Swan Supping
Swan Supping is a Newsletter published by the Aylesbury Vale & Wycombe branch of the Campaign for Real Ale. It consists of beer related articles, up to date pub news, local beer festivals and socials organised by the branch.
It has been in print since April 1997, it is published bimonthly and is completly free! It is financed by advertising - chiefly pubs but also businesses unrelated to beer, any profit goes to the CAMRA HQ in St Albans to further future campaigning initiatives. The circulation is 5500 copies, distributed to over 200 pubs and local railway stations in the branch by willing volunteers of the branch, as well as being available online
Our strength is based upon our consistency, each member is allocated a set number of pubs which they are then responsible for delivering to each publication date. The longevity of our Newsletter shows our commitment to promoting real ale and pub culture.
