With a Radler puzzle you know you are in for a tough workout with well hidden wordplay and themes cleverly worked into the grid. This was no exception. I have a major grumble with a couple of the down clues that do not (for me) satisfy the rules of cryptic cluing. However, Radler, like the hero of this puzzle, has been known to break a rule or two in pursuit of a rollicking good puzzle. Let us know your views.
