fraternie (754) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - NOV 24, 2002
Average pale ale, has the classic bitter English finish and a malt similar to Bass.

Allseeingeye (223) - Vero Beach, Florida, USA - NOV 6, 2002
Tap: Copper colored. Thin spindly head with a small amount of lace. Just a faint nose of alcohol, no malt, no hops. Watery. Bitter end.

jcalbi (378) - New Jersey, USA - OCT 21, 2002
On tap. Rather thin clean amber color. Nice off-white head. Very brassy mouthfeel and aroma. Not enough malt to balance this one out.

Hopistotle420 (1178) - Amherst, Massachusetts, USA - OCT 16, 2002
Nice hazy copperish hue. Unfortunately I got a green bottle, therefore aromas were all skunked out. Nice beige head which erupted all over my desk when I cracked the bottle. This wasnt anything I enjoyed too much, but the skunk was only in the nose. Hoppy and nice malt balance. A decent brew.

RichardGretton (3711) - Leicestershire, ENGLAND - SEP 22, 2002
Double diamond, sounds like a vodka concoction, but really a rather bland and flavourless English beer.

morty99 (371) - Maryland, USA - SEP 19, 2002
Bland boring, and musty. Literally no hop presence. Overall unimpressive.

shorlin (377) - St. John’s, Newfoundland, CANADA - SEP 16, 2002
Widget can tested. Boring nitro foam. Can’t really smell it. OK balance of hop and malt, but lost in the nitro. Watery. Probably should rate again from bottle.
