Pours a very cloudy murky orange body with almost no head. Aroma is dominated by oranges. Citrusy. Flavor is the same, but almost sour tasting. Despite that, it’s one of the best I’ve had for the style, but I’ll take a hefe over this stuff any day.

Golden-orange beer with an orange core. No head, no lacing -- odd I thought, like a beer-ade of some kind. Palate is full and rich, with a long malt finish and a bit of rough carbonation throughout. Aromas are slight and wispy -- malts predominate, but there is also some clove and spice. A generous amount of hops greets the tongue. A mellow maltiness throughout -- nuts and toffee. A good amount os spice -- the ginger presence makes sense, but it might be too much.

Aroma has some light hoppiness but is mostly of ginger. Small to average white head is mostly diminishing with good lacing. I find the flavour light and refreshing but a bit weak: light bitterness, touch of coriander. Light to medium body with soft carbonation.

(22 oz bottle: Rogue Ales Brewery in Newport, OR) Kind of a cross between a bland American wheat and a spicy Belgian witbier, the ginger here is unmistakeable, with coriander, orange citrus, mild hop bitterness and a light pale maltiness making up the remainder of the flavor. Not exactly wheaty to me, but I think that is due in part to the ginger being strong enough to mask it. Ginger is prominent in the nose as well. Light bodied and very clean and refreshing on the palate. Pale golden color, slightly hazy, topped by a small whitish head that is very bubbly and effervescent on the pour and like soda, quickly subsides to nothing. I’m not a big ginger fan, not in beer, not in food, but this beer isn’t bad actually. It certainly has been easy for me to polish off this bomber lickety-split.

Light golden with a frothy white head. Mild aroma of flowery saaz hops. Taste includes some spicy citrus from the coriander and ginger. Light bodied with a medium level of carbonation. One of the best American wheat beers I’ve tried. Very similar in style to a witbier. Not outrageous or excellent enough to merit paying $5 a bomber, but a delicious beer nonetheless.

Pours golden yellow, fairly cloudy with a thick froth heard. Aroma is citrus fruits, banana, yeast and ginger. Mouthfeel is very creamy and thick. Banana, ginger, yeast and hop flavours with a fairly clean finish. Very refreshing..

Bright golden with a frothy white head. Citrusy hops in the nose, sweet malt - fresh, hint of mint - no hints of wheat. The body is semi sweet with a malty front. Nice citrusy hops - not too big, splash of ginger, finishes somewhat quickly. Doesn’t seem to have many wheat characteristics. Seems to be more of an American Pale Ale.

Cloudy yellow with a big head. Citrusy aroma. Very spicy flavor with some citrus as well. Very fizzy mouthfeel. Good beer. I wish I would’ve taken better notes.
