Cambridge Honey-Ginger Ale

Sample from tap at the brewpub. Pours slight hazy orange. Clear ginger aroma, mild honey aroma. Flavour is mellow sweet with a nice blend between honey and ginger. Finish soft ginger spiced.

Summer 2005 draught. Deep goldenrod yellow with some light tangerine juice suggestions. Chill haze. Head is fully dissipating, ginger seems to do that, with a bit of white foam clinging to the edges. No lacing on my glass. Aroma of candyish ginger, warm honey tones. Flavor tastes like honey and ginger, quite surprisingly. Hmm, it’s got a medium-light body, but the malt is definitely there, you taste the honey flavor of the pilsener malt more than you taste the honey flavor from the actual honey. I guess all the honey ferments out though. Motelpogo says boring, but what do you expect from a honey ginger. This is well-done, crisp and refreshing as promised and not thin and watery like many other summer beers. The ginger is not overdone either, which is nice for a change. Aireated texture, rather dry on the end, with quite a bit of carbonation.

no surprises in the aroma, ginger sweets. pleasant hint of sharpness but quite thin and got boring very quickly

Golden in color with a small white head. Aroma of sweet honey and ginger. Spicy flavor with ginger and honey notes with a spicy dry finish.
