Bottle at Funky Buddha/Case and Keg tasting. I really enjoyed this. Cloudy golden yellow pour with a nice rich head. Aroma is fruity, malty, sweet and spicy. Flavor is sweet and very thick on the tongue. I get some really good candy sugar, caramel and fruit. Pretty damn good.

[Bottle] Pours a cloudy straw gold with a large off white head. Aroma is tart apples and pineapple. Flavor is quite tart, very light, and lemony with a bit of oak.

flowery aroma, not hoppy but more like lavender. cloudy yellowish/orange with a thick one-fingered size head. The taste is similar to the aroma with a little copper metallic twinge. Earthy yeast and flowers are still dominating. Slight bitterness and maybe a little honey.

Tap at Ginger Man. Hazy orange-amber beer. Aroma is lightly fruity and sweet. A bit of honeyed sweetness. Light orange and cherry and a bit of ginger. It’s got a few good things going on, but it’s generally poor. A little bit watery and muddled.

On tap at the Ginger Man. Pours a nice amber color with a thin white head. Aroma is slightly fruity and malty with a neat spiciness. Taste is smooth and malty with a sweet candy like fruitiness and has hints of caramel. Very flavorful and complex.

Bottle on sale from Sams. Hazy orange pour with greyish tint. Full white head. Very spicy and floral... earthy and peppery. Bready. Also maybe ginger? Clove? Who knows... confusing to my palate.

Pale copper pour with a sweet malty aroma. Floral aroma. Spicy, fruity flavor up front with a bready finish. Ginger is a little over the top

Pours a pale peachy amber with a thin fizzy white head. The nose was sweet, lightly alcoholic, malty, pungent and perfumy, friuty, spicy. The flavor was very spicy, warm, malty, slightly earthy, bready, ligthly fruity. Very interesting flavor. The palate was lightly bitter and fully carbonated.
