With an unmistakable cover design, we are excited to announce that the foreword for this year's Good Beer Guide has been penned by Bruce Dickinson, frontman and lead singer of Iron Maiden. Bruce is the frontman and lead singer of one of the most successful bands to come from the UK, Iron Maiden. He is also a collaborative brewer with Robinsons, producing one of the UK's most successful real ale beer brands that started with Trooper a decade ago. His foreword is a personal reflection on his love of beer, pubs, and a job that he describes as 'the best on the planet' - which includes brewing and drinking beer!'You hold in your hands a voyage of discovery not just through a wonderful world of traditional ales and brewers, but also a lens through which to observe the web of history which weaves around the fabric of that almost unique institution-the British Pub.' - Bruce Dickinson
