Herefordshire Branch Newsletter - The Hereford Hopvine

Yes - we know that hops grow on bines, but our newsletter is named after that other great means of communication, the grapevine! It is published five times per year and delivered to approximately 100 pubs within the county. Copies also find their way to many beer festivals, and real ale pubs around the country.
First published in June 2001, 2500 copies of each edition are printed and the format is A5, alternate colour and black & white, consisting of 28-36 pages.
