Bottle. Light cloudy yellow pour. Aroma of ginger and other spices. Flavor of oregano, ginger and clove. Very unique beer!

Bomber emblazoned with a creepy-ass dude, a goth seductress and one phallic-as-hell snake. Hazy yellow with a subdued head. Aroma is extremely spicy with licorice dominating, maybe some soft citrus in the background. Flavor is all about the spice, with an almost minty character at the forefront. The adjunct spice overpowers the typical clove esters of a white. Refreshing mouthfeel, and a nice change of pace, but a little too unbalanced.

Tap at Sheffields. Poured a cloudy gold with an off-white head. Aroma was a bit underwhelming but notes of hops, flower, fruits and malts present. Flavor began a bit fruity and then built to a malty finish. Hops were underlying throughout but lacked the bitterness,

Fizzy, frothy yellow beer with thick, billowy, poofy cream head. Full of upward carbonation. Aroma of light ginger ale and spice. Gentle flavor of grains of paradise and ginger. Lively, sprightly body. An enjoyable, prickly, lively, spiced lager. Nicely done.

Pours a hazy yellow golden with a thin, wispy-lacing white head. Aroma of fresh ground coriander, orange zest and some white pepper. Body starts effervescent and lightly sweet and pretty heavily spiced with some bitterness from the spices near the finish. Pretty decent pseudo-witbier/spiced ale.

Bottle. Looks marvelous! Dark yellow, almost orange. Steady carbonation and a good fluffy head. Weird spice aroma took me by surprise. Smells like nutmeg or hard spice and the flavour is even stronger. The dark spice is hard to take at first in what looks like a wheat beer. A bit chalky. A you get into there is more lemon and banana to mix with the spice. Kind of like a pepper lemon-banana creamsicle. Unique in a missed the target kind of way.

Pours light yellow with a HUGE fluffy head. Aroma is pleasantly spicy and grainy. Moderate mouthfeel with Pleasantly spicy and mildly belgian-like. Rather sweet flavored. Thin mouth feel. Flavor is dry and mildly citrusy.

Bottle from Crown #19. Poured a hazy yellow color with an above average frothy white head that mostly lasted with good lacing. Moderate lemon citrus and spice aroma. Light to medium body with soft carbonation. Medium sweet&sour flavor with a medium sweet finish of moderate duration. I would recommend this refreshing beer to a friend.
