I'm not sure exactly the difference between "English bitter" (as Honker's had been described) and "Pale ale". However I know I've read Honker's described as a pale ale, and there's an article for it, so I changed it. I'm not trying to say one categorization is neccessarily better than the other.

In general "English bitter" is a subset of "English Pale Ale", it's a more specific label. I called it an English bitter since that's what Beeradvocate called it. Goose Island themselves call it "a pale ale" as well as a "fine English-style brew". Sounds like a bitter, but I don't see any reason to change it back. I'm going to see if I can sit down and look over the Wikipedia Beer stuff to see if we can get a proposed list of beer types together so we're all talking the same language and not redlinking all over the place. -- Kaszeta 13:16, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
