Entries for the national competition have been flooding in, with pubs eager to give their roast the fame it deserves, with £10,000 of PR up for grabs for the winner.

The competition will also crown regional champions for South England, North England, Midlands, Wales and Scotland.

With the exception of the national winner, each regional winner will receive a runner-up prize of £2,500 of PR to help put their pub on the map.

To be in with a chance of winning, all pubs need to do is explain what makes their roast great.
