Prince Charles has had it sent to Highgrove, Guy Ritchie got a case for his birthday on his wife Madonna's recommendation, and Hugh Grant enjoys a tipple.

So it is no surprise for the brewers at Timothy Taylor's in Keighley that "top people's" grocer Harrods is to start selling its beer.

The Knightsbridge store -- famous for its posh customers -- is putting the beers on the the shelves as part of a 'Truly British' promotion to show off the best regional products.

And afterwards the store will continue to stock half the popular brands.

Chief brewer Peter Eells said he believeed Timothy Taylor ales would go down a storm.

And the family-owned brewery already has a well-documented showbusiness following after Madonna once said she enjoyed a pint of Landlord.

Mr Eells said: "Given a fair crack of the whip like this there is no reason why our ales will not continue to sell well in Harrods. We make a superior brew and it is great that Harrods no less has recognised this."

After Prince Charles toured the brewery, a case was sent to his country home and a request for some for Guy Ritchie's birthday was recently despatched. The Regional Food Group for Yorkshire and Humberside (RFGYH) put forward 18 names to Harrods, including rare breed meat and puddings.
