Holmfirth 'Last Of The Summer Wine' Tour & Bar Crawl, Beer#8. Clear slightly deeper golden with a fine head. It wasn't the best sitcom in the world, but is to date the longest running. This isn't a typical best either, it's very hoppy, in both aroma and taste, with minimal bitterness and a gentle sweetness. Hoppy in the main though and very sessionable within its own style.

On cask at Nook in Holmfirth - clear amber body, solid lacing white top. Caramel notes, nice fruity tang, very easy going.
