2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20

3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle. It pours a nice, hazy, golden-orange body with a decent off-white head. Spices and wheat in the aroma which is completely dominated by ginger. Too much in my opinion, as it leaves a soapy impression. The ginger is dominant initially in the flavor, followed by a general spicyness, wheat, malt and a little bitterness. Medium body and a pleasant co2 level. I like the concept of putting ginger in the saison, but the amount in this beer seriously affected the drinkability. Decent beer though, and somehow quenching.
