Signed, although I doubt it will do much good.Sadly an accountant in Copenhagen has already made the decision. Thank goodness we have the Leeds Brewery to continue our fine brewing tradition in the city.

"We want it brewed in Leeds, not "Brewed in the Uk by Danes"" perhaps? Which alludes to the tag line Carlsberg used to have on their adverts.

Thank goodness we have the Leeds Brewery to continue our fine brewing tradition in the city. Quite possibly mate,BUT,if they are genuinely towting it for a brewer in Yorkshire then theres still a chance.Id like to see Leeds Brewery get it,but being realistic,they wouldnt be able to handle the production,capacity and logistics involved.they are still only a new company and as much as id like to see Teleys stay in Leeds,if only for Si's sake,i want to see Leeds Brewery grow and prosper,but still retaining their micro brewing ethos.As for Carlsberg i think they will want to keep the most famous bitter brand in the country (along with John (yuck)Smiths) and produce it at less cost to Carlsberg as a whole,thus they can have their famous brand cake and eat it at Netto own brand price,not a good analogy i know,but its the best i can think of at the moment.
