Volgon (2717) - Manchester, New Hampshire, USA - JUL 26, 2002
RateBeer Summer (Toronto) ’02: Orange color, underhopped even for the English IPA’s. Yawn.

argo0 (9227) - Washington DC, USA - JUL 22, 2002
An English IPA, with the English bitter aroma and flavor. Limited malt presence -- so-so at best.

Schroppfy (2335) - Łódż, Warsaw, Poland; Michigan, Ohio, USA - JUL 22, 2002
Thin, watery, underwhelming. Not even typical English IPA complexity (with a good malt balance), let alone American.

Radek Kliber (5308) - Toronto (Can) Krotoszyn (Pol), POLAND - JUL 20, 2002
Bitter, smooth, malty, not bad but expected a bit more of ’soul”.

DougShoemaker (3149) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - JUN 22, 2002
Pleasant hop aroma, cloudy yellow, good bitterness. Creamy, smooth. Quite nice!

omhper (15964) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - JAN 9, 2002
Golden coloured. Medium bodied, medium sweet. Flowery aroma, bitter and IMO well balanced.

daboskabouter (1470) - Fergus, Ontario, CANADA - AUG 26, 2001
The worst of the bunch that I’ve had. Generally just not a lot of taste.

Oakes (10196) - Gibsons, British Columbia, CANADA - NOV 25, 2000
Typically non-threatening Ontario example of the style. Problem is, I like threatening.
