The Albion Ale House or The Albion is a Grade II listed public house in Conwy, North Wales.[1] Built in 1921, it is a three-room pub with Art Nouveau decor that underwent major renovation in 2012.[2] The Albion is jointly operated by four North Wales breweries and real ales from these breweries and other beers are served through eight hand pumps.[3] The Albion Ale House was named the 2013 Wales Pub of the Year by the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA),[4] and named one of the world's best bars by The Guardian.[5]

The four breweries that co-run The Albion are Conwy Brewery of Llysfaen, Bragdy Nant of Llanrwst, Great Orme Brewery of Llandudno, and Purple Moose Brewery of Porthmadog.[3] Шаблон:Location map+ Шаблон:Clear left

History

The Albion was built in 1921 on the site of a previous pub.[1] By mid-2010 the ale house was not profitable and had fallen into disrepair. It was sold by its owner, Punch Taverns, to Arthur Ellis, a local businessman.[6] The Albion remained closed for a year while renovation work was carried out at a total cost of £100,000.[3][7] Ellis arranged for the four local breweries to co-operate in running the pub on its reopening.[3]

The Albion Ale House reopened in February 2012. The renovated pub received the English Heritage Conservation Award in the 2014 CAMRA Pub Design Awards.[8] The interior of the Albion appears on the cover of the Britain's Best Real Heritage Pubs guide published by CAMRA.[9]
