New current incarnation appears to be a standard 5L mini-keg, the question is who's brewing (?) the liquid inside? I would suspect it'll be some badge engineering of a run of the mill BBB. Other than the grapefruit/pine referred to in the tasting notes it could be London Pride (Orange marmalade being a frequent reference in tasting notes). Of course Doombar would be cheap and nasty enough to substitute for the original pish, (apologies to Retired Martin).

Save your apologies - in one of today's posts he had a pint (a pint!) of John Smiths Extra Cold Crap in a Craft Union pub in Hitchin.

Don't let the Watneys name put you off.I have had 5 or 6 Watneys beers brewed as Moby suggested at Sambrookes and nearly all have been good.Far better than Sambrookes imo.

I believe Quinno is of the opinion that NHSMartin is just trolling Bass and Doombar rather than having poor taste in beer.
I worked with a bloke in the 1970s who said the same thing, pre-war Watneys was good beer.
