A popular micropub in South Tyneside has scooped the North East Cider Pub of the Year award.
Judges from Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA) awarded Blue's Micropub in Whitburn the esteemed title based on the quality and condition of the cider, promotion and knowledge of the product as well as the service and welcome. They also took style, décor and furnishing, community focus, and atmosphere into consideration.
Blue's is run by Callum Watson and Alice Pye and opened just before the first lockdown in 2020. However, in just two years Blue's has already made its presence felt in the North East region and was included in the 2022 Good Beer Guide. It also won the South Tyneside Cider Pub of the Year.
