KyotoLefty (3752) - Kyoto, JAPAN - NOV 20, 2011
Draught at Tadg’s. Shiny orange-amber with lace. Big citrus hop nose, spicy but not overtly ginger, until it warms a bit. Nice fruit, slightly tropical. Sweet malt flavor with more ginger, nice hops. Good balance and nice bitterness. Nice body, rich but a bit fizzy. Good stuff.

Med amber color. Pink grapefruit and tea. Nice mouthfeel with lots of ginger, grapefruit and oranges. Excellent balance. Smooth.

bb (4888) - Alamo, California, USA - MAR 23, 2011
Draft. Deep amber-red beer with anoff-white head. Citrus hop aroma with some sweet malt backing. Citrus and a little pine hop flavor with malty sweetness. Finish is too clean and hops don’t linger much on the aftertaste. Ginger in background.

savnac (1467) - Anchorage, Alaska, USA - NOV 13, 2010
On tap @ Ballast Point. Clearish yellow/orange with a small head. Aroma of ginger, citrus and some light malt. The flavor is more IPA with just a hit of spicy ginger. Medium body with average carbonation and a clean finish. This was better than I had anticipated, the ginger aroma is way stronger than the flavor, which was nice for me.

JohnnyJ (3041) - San Diego, California, USA - NOV 12, 2010
Draft. Clear golden amber pour, white head. Spicy ginger, light sweetness, citrus, and bitter hops in the finish. I thought it was quite nice, interesting twist on the IPA.

JoeMcPhee (6961) - Toronto, ON, Ontario, CANADA - AUG 3, 2010
Tap at Rattle N Hum. Golden pour with a white head. The nose is loaded with light spicy ginger over a soft pale malt base. A little bit of candyish sugar flavour - although it’s not actually that sweet. An almost savoury character on the back. Pretty hoppy on the back - almost astringent.

BMan1113VR (6444) - Los Angeles, California, USA - JUL 17, 2010
On tap at the Ballast Point brewer’s night at the Daily Pint. Pours with a clear bronze body and a huge off-white head. Aroma is hoppy, pine, candied ginger, and herbal. Taste is spicy, hoppy and caramel. Very interesting. Dry and spicy mouthfeel. Good beer.

Had a taster on tap, amber and clearish in color. A tad bit creamy. A decent beer.
