Tough decision with two top conditioned cask beers at the top of the list.
Ossett Silver King, very nice and a lot hoppier than I remember it from years ago, in The King Charles Tavern, If I have to choose though I going to give top spot to....
Roosters Yankee, nailed my tastebuds in The Alfred.

Silver King is the Ossett beer of choice for me, probably for the reason you mention. But when I went in their pub on Kelham Island a while back they had several Ossett beers on but not this one. Probably because it's hoppy with a bitter finish...
I often have Yankee at the Sheffield Tap. Good beer.
