Three County MPs have joined forces to help share the taste of Worcestershire with fellow MPs. MPs Harriett Baldwin, Peter Luff and Robin Walker gathered in the famed Strangers Bar to sample local ales from the Teme Valley Brewery in Knightwick and the St George's Brewery, Callow End. The MPs enjoyed glasses of T’Other from the Knightwick micro-brewery and Friar Tuck, brewed in Callow End. The beers are available as part of an effort to promote local breweries and the beers will be on sale in Westminster until stocks run out. Harriett commented: “I was pleased when Peter and Robin agreed to join me to sample these excellent local beers. “I don’t normally venture into the bar much myself, but it was a pleasure to share a swift half with my colleagues after a raucous Prime Minister’s Questions. “Worcestershire has a great heritage for producing hops and it is wonderful to be able to promote a local beer from my local brewery and share the taste of Worcestershire with colleagues from across the land.”
