3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Nose is lemon and kiwifruit, and of course ginger. Pours a slightly cloudy gold. Flavour is fresh and full of ginger - loads of it. This is good for me, as I like ginger, and so this is one of the few herbals I can appreciate.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Golden Orange coloured ale, fruity and gingery nose, orangegy fruit with a bitter ginger(non spicy) linger.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle (from Bitter Virtuem, BBJun 07). Gold Easily the best of the Atlantic beers with masses of spicy ginger in the nose and mouth, Idris eat your heart out. Theres not really a whole lot else going on here, other than a little fruit and hop, but the ginger is strong enough to carry it,.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle. Golden colour with a sparse white head. Aroma is dominated by the ginger, but I think its fairly hoppy as well. Taste is dominated by the ginger again. This is not, as the bottle says "subtly spiced with ginger", but tastes more a halfway house on the road to ginger ale. Not bad if you like ginger.

Bottle. Huge frothy head with good duration. Color is golden. Aroma and taste are ginger, fruits, malt and hops. Very lively, didnt want to stay in bottle.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle from ASDA. Cloudy golden colour with a lively, yet short-lived, white head. Aroma of ginger, yeast and oranges. Flavour had ginger and other spices, a herbal touch and a short dry finish. Ok, but a bit subdued for this type of beer.
2.9 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20
330ml bottle from a Torquay supermarket. A pale amber beer, light and thirst-quenching. Very yeasty, giving character to the beer. Prickly carbonation. Good ginger and spice notes lift this above an average lager type beer.
2.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle, 330ml. A cloudy golden colour with a large fizzy head. Aroma is strong with yeast, hops, banana and caramel. Taste is disappointing: a little hoppy, some yeast, banana and ginger. Fairly sweet and highly carbonated. A little watery in the finish. With half the carbonation, this might be a decent brew.
