Yorkshire Beer Bible, The

In this newly-updated comprehensive guide to Yorkshire brewing, renowned beer writer Simon Jenkins trawls the length and breadth of Britain's biggest (and best) county seeking out the brewers old and new, large and small, which between them have created an astonishing resurgent beer scene. From fiercely traditional brewers producing time-honoured beers in slate Yorkshire squares, to the new-wave craft brewers embracing a dizzying variety of imported hops; from the ancient brewer hemmed in by a tight knot of cobbled streets to the brewery set up in a care home to draw attention to life-limiting genetic conditions - Simon found them all. This entertaining journey around the county lists every brewer Simon could find - more than 200 - and features lots of his favourite beers and some of the best places to drink them.
