Beer Duty Falls!

On the afternoon of 20 March in the Budget the Chancellor said those words we have all been waiting for: We will now scrap the beer duty escalator altogether. He is even going one step further and cutting beer duty by 1p a pint — which will mean that pubs won’t need to increase their prices this year.

The Chancellor was very clear in his speech that he is scrapping the Escalator because of the incredible campaign by people like you over the past year — so on behalf of CAMRA, thank you for helping us get here!

Let’s not lose sight of the fact that there will be other taxation threats to pubs, clubs and beer, but we will rise to those challenges and fight them to the best of our ability.
