   That's what I'm aiming for.  And knowing that someone reads 'em will   
   encourage me to continue them for another couple of decades.

   Might depend a bit on whether your mates (hereinafter 'the Crown Cap   
   Service' or CCS') want the beer name to make sense to a lay   
   audience too: the punters who'll be drinking down at The Verdict's   
   Inn.

   I think this is my favourite from the list.

   As long as I don't have to pay punnitive damages, here are some ideas   
   for things that the CCS brew from supreme wort:   
      
     HopDocket  (using a pun on the HopRocket)   
     Final Appeal  (best for an appealing golden/summer ale)   
     Barred from the Bar  (for more serious fare)   
     Gulpability ___  (with a blank for 'Porter', 'Stout', ...)   
     Third Party Action   
     ASBO Barley Wine  (the most serious by far)   
      
   Some bad 'ale' puns:   
     Ale-gation ___  (perhaps also fitting as a brewery name)   
     Juridicale   
     Tribunale   
      
   Some abuse of Latin:   
     Ad Hop   
     Compos Maltis  (the malts may be sound, but they aren't native Latin)   
     Amicus Maltiae   
     Juice Praeferendi   
     Juice Commune  (should work for law geeks and normals alike)   
      
   I'll keep my eyes open for my crate of whatever the CCS end up naming   
   this liquid asset.
