Bottle. Aroma never developed much for me, and most of the time was strongly of salami. When gingersnaps were brought up, I sort of alternately placed the scent as gingersnaps or salami, but the whole time it was one-dimensional, and even if salami was just my nost being weird, just wasn’t too much there for me. Flavor was less weird, with spicy notes, grassy notes, bitter hop notes, maybe some super light fruity notes, but still was nothing to rock my socks. Palate was fine, wasn’t a poorly constructed beer it didn’t seem (and one fellow with me did enjoy the brew very much), but for me, was little more than weird.

Jul 23, 2008 I think I have moejuck to thank for this: Aroma is the sweetness of a cherry blossom. Flavor is spicy, corriander, bubblegum, light ginger. Mildly hopped. A pleasant offering.

Jul 18, 2008 750 ml bottle, corked and caged, from Bottle Trek. Thanks to BlackDonald about the need for cork control. Hazy gold color with a bubbly white head. Principal aroma is ginger. Underlying light malt and funk? Medium body with creamy carbonation. Flavor is mostly ginger, there’s a hint of funk, a little citrus/coriander. Finishes out a bit herby with complicated flavors including lighter stone fruits. Really quite appealing. I love ginger.

Jul 16, 2008 Thank to Beerlando! An explosive pour literally, I think the cork flew about 10 feet. Somewhat spicy and sweet in the nose with some herbal hops, biscuity maltiness and a prevalent bit of farhmouse funk, cinnamon and coriander. Drinkable but not overly complex. A bit of honey with prevalent cinnamon spices throughout, with some yeasty qualities tucked in, perhaps a bit of clove and a very faint banana.

Jul 9, 2008 Pours a cloudy orange gold color with almost no head. The aroma is funky, with spices and ginger. The flavor is quite tart, slightly funky, there’s some spices, ginger and fruits. The body is light with an oily texture and moderate carbonation. Impressive, well crafted.
