The Cider Pub of the Year was Ye Olde Cider Bar in Newton Abbot. YOCB, which serves predominantly Cider and Perry but no beer or lager, was presented with its award by Bob Southwell on the 2nd May. A further presentation was made to Richard Knibbs, the previous owner of the Ye Olde Cider Bar who, having taken over around 46 years ago made the Cider Bar into the institution that it has become today. He received a special CAMRA award for his lifelong devotion and commitment to cider.
