330ml bottle. Bright clear amber colour with small bubbles that struggle to make any type of foam. Strong ginger aroma as you would expect from a ginger beer. Very strong overpowering gfinger flavour that almost burms your throat, gets better the more you drink. Almost like a chilli beer.

Bottle. Clear golden with no trace of a head. Good ginger aroma. Light body with medium carbonation. The flavour is very impressive: perhaps slightly sweet, but only slightly, the ginger is truly impressive building to quite an intense heat that lasts a long time. This is a great ginger beer.

Bottle at Australian Beer Festival. Really nice stuff this. Quite sweet and syrupy at first but the carbonation and ginger spice dries things right out. Lots of rich ginger root (possibly with skin on?) flavour. Finishes very warming, and it just keeps on going. I could see myself drinking a number of these on a warm summers day.
