I was impressed with this brew. Slight ginger flavor with a strong finish. Moderate bitterness with a good palate. Very drinkable on a nice summer evening with rib eye steak!

Bottle with a best before date of 5/2009. Medium sized white head that mostly diminished, floaties, spotty lacing, very little carbonation, hazy, and a pale yellow hue. The aroma was sweet, fruity, spicy notes, some ginger, and yeast. Ditto for the flavor with a semi-dry finish. The mouthfeel was tingly and this is a medium bodied beer. Quaffable, easy to driink, but very light ginger aroma and flavor IMO. Just a so-so beer for me as it is not a bad beer per se, but it did not leave me wanting to seek this one out again.

Light gold body with a bright white head. The aroma is dominated with the ginger. Behind that is some citrus lime and cake donuts. The taste is like flat Sprite with some light ginger. A strange brew.

Courtesy of Yespr. It’s hazy, golden with a small, dense head. The aroma has notes of flower, fruit and malt. The flavour has sweetness, notes of spice, malt, dry citrus and very light hints of ginger. IMO the ginger could/should have been much more pronounced.

Bottle. Clear medium yellow color with a average, frothy, good lacing, mostly lasting, white head. Aroma is light to moderate yeasty, spicy, moderate ginger. Flavor is moderate sweet and bitter with a average duration, and a syntetich touch. Body is medium to light, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. (110408)

Appearance: blond semi-orange color, some cloudy. Little and white head, not lasting. Aroma: floral with chamomile touch. Intensive ginger smell; other spicy touch like clove and aniseed. Some fruity notes similar to pineapples and oranges. Flavor: sweet and spicy start from ginger and malts, mainly. Lasting ginger taste. Aniseed reminiscences and fruitiness like pear-melon and medlar. Palate: light to medium body, some rough texture and light to medium carbonation. Remark: some sickly and unbalanced, some excessive ginger taste. Exotic and mediocre beer.

nice and fruity, its got some nice flavors reminds me of fruit gum. medium malty and low hops. Very nice.

The aroma has ginger, yeast, malt, and sugar. The appearance is hazy gold with an average head. The flavor is like the aroma. The palate is thin. Overall I like it.
