500ml bottle Light orange, think head. Sweet gingery aroma. Hugely gingery taste - sharp, crisp and sweet. Long gingery after taste - parhaps too gingery, drowns the pleasant smooth malty taste.

espuma pequena, aerada e branca, de longevidade bem reduzida. moderada formação de colarinho. corpo claro, ralo e amarelo-escuro. aroma: leve malte, lúpulo moderado, gengibre. if and ff: heavy sweet light bitter. palate: light medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation, metallic finish. forte gosto de gengibre,mas doce demais e um pouco artificial, diferente da ginger ale, q é balanceada, exótica, mas muito enjoativa, lembra refri de gengibre, 30 s 13,9rs

trapez (1352) - Hilleroed, DENMARK - MAR 20, 2012
Bottle. Aroma dominated by the spicy ginger with some fruits. Hops seem absent. Light amber colour with white head. Sweet flavour and nicely spiced with ginger which is totally dominating. There is no bitterness.

Scottrf (103) - Bedfordshire, ENGLAND - MAR 19, 2012
Flat looking amber. Spicy aroma, ginger. Gingerness is a bit OTT in the taste, burning. Quite thin. Gingerness sticks in the throat a bit much.

strawman (12) - - MAR 4, 2012
Difficult beer to rate for me. Aroma - Ginger, Taste - Ginger. Ginger throughout, and also very sweet. Not at all hoppy or malty, the gingerness really does dominate. Pleasant enough, but one is enough as this becomes sickly after a while.

eusou9 (31) - - FEB 13, 2012
Nice strong amber color, with a almost non-existent white head. Has a very interesting spicy aroma, with a taste of ginger. Taste like a soup of spices that begins with a smoth sweetness, with a smoked end. Flavour goes very well togheter, althought it is not a very easy drinking beer. Nice combination of flavours and aromas.
