Commercial Description:
Ingredients: Water; Malted barley; Ginger root; Hops; Yeast.
Our beer is basically a pale ale brewed from a relative low gravity, with some of the hops which would normally be used in the beer replaced by freshly ground ginger root. The beer is light in body, lower in alcohol, has a distinct ginger aroma, and has a very crisp finish. It was initially brewed as a refreshing alternative to the plethora of wheat beers which are popular in the summertime. Popular demand turned it into a year round beer.

Bottle. Pours a clear copper, no real head, but does have some nice lacing. Taste is very light, crisp and a tiny bit dry. Smell is a bit sweet, with hints of citrus and ginger. After taste is a bit bland and watery; actually reminds me of the last 1/3rd of a can of semi-warm Keystone

Bottle. Not much to say here. Frothy white head does not last. Funky aroma that smells a bit sour. Not a lot of flavor on either the hops or the malt side. Not even a particularly strong ginger flavor. I like regular non-alcoholic ginger beer, so I thought this would be interesting to taste, but there’s really not much there.

(bottle, 35.5cl) Hazy, orange to amber colour with a short and slightly yellow frothy head. Citrus-fruity and slightly woody hoppy aroma with a mild malty and spicy background. Slightly bitter flavour, light bodied with a moderate carbonation. Soft malty body with noble hops character; dry and slightly bitter and fruity hoppy finish with present ginger spice. Might be a good thirst quencher in the summer. 21.XII.09

Pours a very clear, golden color with low amounts of carbonation and a moderately dense head that fades down to a very thin filmy white head. Aroma has a ginger presence mixed with a very grainy base malt sweetness and finishes with a grassy note. Flavor is overpowered by a heavy ginger root note, not a sweet ginger ale type of flavor. A sweet grainy note, a light grassy hops presence are present with it finishing out with a very pronounced green tea type of flavor and texture. The brew has a very light density associated with it, a very clean crisp texture to it and very low carbonation present. Overall the flavors worked well, very clean but I find the ginger to be a bit too much. Although I am not a big ginger fan, I still say this is a decent brew to give a try.

24th May 2008. Crisp refreshing beer with a good (but not overpowering) ginger presence. No complexity here but not bad.

This is my first beer rating in my new house! Believe it or not, I know live on PORTER ROAD. I picked up this Left Hand mix 12pack at one of 2 good beer stores nearby. I now have a store on my drive home that stocks Founders, Left Hand, Alesmith, and many Belgians. This beer is refreshing with just a hint of ginger and almost no hops. I would have liked it better if they bumped up the ginger and hop flavs. This is still enjoyable with a crisp finish. I think that it cleared up my cough too. Ha
