It’s been a while since we had a ‘County Stat’ thread.
Just add up your Yorkshire rates and let’s see how those of us who are still active on the forums are doing.
Here are my magnificent scores:
East Yorkshire at 30, puts me = 35th in the Top Raters List.
North Yorkshire at 232, and 23rd.
South Yorkshire at 130, = 22nd.
West Yorkshire at 285, and 38th.
Grand total of 677. 13% of my English Rates and 6% of my Total Ratings on here.
Only four countries score more heavily (and California) for me.

PS. I am sure @Mr_Pink_152 did a spreadsheet type thing last time I looked at this stat (just saying).
A much more modest range of scores of course.
East Yorks 17
N. Yorks 94
S. Yorks 78
W. Yorks 159
Grand total 348 which a sizeable chunk of my modest total ratings 3000+ which is overwhelmingly UK in any case. But it is still odd that West beats South given that I am Nottingham based and frankly a source of grief that this is so much higher than Lancashire will ever be.
East - 7
North - 58
South - 9
West - 427 - puts me 23rd, just two behind @Mr_Pink_152 and 12 behind @Fin both of whom I am due to overtake by the end of the year based on what I am yet to rate.
TOTAL: 501 // 18.5% of my England ratings // 9.8% of my total ratings
Other than West Yorks which is my 3rd ranked county mine are surprisingly poor. Two of my favourite breweries are in West hence the massively disproportionate number of rates there. Where I’m top rater for North Brew Co and 2nd for Northern Monk. Before Magic Rock sold out I used to drink a fair amount of their beers too.
Like theprof no foreign country is anywhere close to my Yorkshire total. US closest at 360 and Scotland at 311.
I was going to suggest an update of the Home Counties stats but I see that there are debates over which counties should be included. Also doesn’t include Hampshire and I am not sure what I think about that.
But maybe a Wessex one…(in fact I have started working this one out for when we declare inpendence after a no deal Brexit).
I started doing Wessex based on Dorset, Isle of Wight, Hants, Wilts and Berks which are the original Wessex but it expanded to include Surrey, Sussex, Middlesex, Herts, Oxon, etc.
West Yorkshire 51
North Yorkshire 35
South Yorkshire 7
East Yorkshire 2
West Yorkshire is my most rated county after Greater London. (Also most place ratings after London. I expect this is largely attributable to spending a weekend in Leeds for the 2015 Rugby world cup.)
If it were a country West Yorkshire would be my 14th most rated. (Yorkshire as a whole would be 9th.)
Random fun facts: Yorkshire is home to the favorite English football club of myself and Sir Patrick Stewart - Huddersfield Town Terriers - unfortunately I was forced to demote them in my list of my favorite club after they refused to sell me a ticket despite my having flown across the Atlantic. My current allegiance is thus to AFC Richmond.
Well I’ve only 399 England ratings but I like stats so I’ll bite!
West Yorkshire 38 (Best rated: Magic Rock Fantasma)
North Yorkshire 11 (Best rated: Theakston Old Peculiar)
South Yorkshire 5 (Best rated: Abbeydale Deception)
East Yorkshire 0 (Best rated: f all)
Total Yorkshire 54 (13.5% of my England ratings and 9% overall. If it were a country it would go straight into second, 8 ahead of Germany)
I seem to be following a common pattern of higher ratings in the West. Predominantly for me this is through beers from Morrisons and Asda.
Just to add in my tuppenceworth, for you all to chuckle at! I’m sitting at:
West Yorkshire - 16
North Yorkshire - 6
South Yorkshire - 1
East Yorkshire - 0
Since I’m currently on a grand total of 189 rates, God’s Country accounts for around 12% of my total. And if it were its own country (there’s plenty think it already is) it would come 3rd for me, above the US of A. This is all subject to change once I sort out my backlog of course, although not massively I wouldn’t expect. It’s an embarrassment really that I’ve nowt from the East and only one from the South thus far!
East Yorkshire: 24 beers, 47 in the top list
North Yorkshire 137 beers, 44 in the top list
South Yorkshire at 58 beers, not in top 50
West Yorkshire at 176 beers, not in top 50
So that gives me 395 Yorkshire beers. If Yorkshire was one county it’d be my top county. If this county declared independence from the UK it would be my second most rated country.
