750mL bottle, courtesy of artusory. Thanks, Ryan! Pours a hazy, whitish-yellow color with particulates; fizzy off-white head with solid retention and lacing. Breadiness, soft esters, and ginger in the aroma; dry, basic; a touch of citrus. Medium-to-full mouthfeel: lots of ginger, chewy breadiness, yeast and some citrus; basic, overly carbonation Belgian profile with a reasonable amount of ginger. Medium finish: ginger, breadiness, and dry yeast.

clear gold under a lively fizzy white head with lots of carbonation bubbles. fresh, herbal, crisp, vanilla, aroma. flavor is cool minty, vanilla. leaves your mouth feeling clean and refreshed like some kind of minty chewing gum or toothpaste. drinkable and not too focused on the ginger but it’s definitely there.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Light golden body with a soft small white head. Fruity herbal nose, yeasty with a light ginger note. The ginger was very mild, I realy enjoy ginger so I wouldn’t mind it turned up a touch. Fairly watery palate, carbonation was very soft taking away some of the spiciness of the beer. Just ok for me, dry palate, but a bit more malt and some more carbonation, a touch more ginger and I would have enjoyed it more.
