Yorkshire And The Brewing League Table

EDM number 2200 in 2010-12, proposed by Greg Mulholland on 15/09/2011.
Categorised under the topics of Cultural heritage and Service industries.

That this House welcomes the fantastic news that Yorkshire has topped the 2012 Good Beer Guide's list of top brewing counties with over 600 beers in regular production across its 98 breweries; congratulates all the breweries in Yorkshire for achieving this accolade; notes the particular achievements of West Yorkshire which plays host to 43 breweries, brewing 276 beers; further notes that this is especially good news for the county following the closure of the historic Tetley's Brewery in Leeds earlier this year; and hopes that pubs and beer in Yorkshire will continue to thrive for many years to come.

This motion has been signed by a total of 6 MPs.
