| 1.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 5/20 | Aug 16, 2009 Pale yellow with a small white head. Strong spicy aroma with cardemum, pepper and anise. Sweet, fruity and spicy flavour. Ewww. Too much yemenmocha (354), Glendale, Arizona, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 5/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Aug 12, 2009 Pours slightly hazy pale golden color with thick, white head with a few dollops here and there. Nose is light and with the coriander it suggest something more familiar such as a Belgian wheat. On the palate the impressions of an ale rather than a lager are seen, perhaps it’s just the association with these spices to another style, but it is rather soft with some gentle fruit in there... again, an ale.

Notes of orange peel, citrus, pear, creamy wheat. Medium bodied, lightly creamy with soft carbonation. MesandSim (5818), London, Greater London, England
| 1.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 6/20 | Aug 10, 2009 A Mes rate: bottle at the ever brilliant Chris O’s Pre GBBF Extravaganza. My god. Sorry guys but I thought this was really bad. Lemon yellow with a thin white head. Stale vegetables and farrrrrr too spicy. I really can’t drink this without pulling a face. Very medcinal in the finish. Dumped. CapnCascade (116), Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Aug 6, 2009 Cloudy, rich orange-amber pour, minimal fizzy white head with some slight retention. Very strong spicy aroma, lots of coriander and ginger--reminiscent of a ginger ale, actually. Ginger is also quite prominent on the palate, along with noble hops and pepper. Long, gingery finish. Much fuller mouthfeel than I had been expecting and good, even carbonation. Held my interest. All in all a curious but quite pleasant beer, a bit dirty and garish perhaps but then again so is Coney Island...I also enjoyed the rather naughty label. SilkTork (4170), Rochester, Kent, England
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 6, 2009 Chriso Shindig Aug 2009. Cloudy white. Mildly medicinal. Quite drinkable. OK. The phallic snake picture on the label is amusing. hughie (3053), Bedford, Bedfordshire, England
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | Aug 2, 2009 At Chriso’s pre GBBF Shindig ’09. Pale hazy gold with a small white head. Startling spicy aroma and taste. Slight sourness, slightly phenolic. A little dryness. Odd, and to be frank, not very pleasant.
