Deep, super robust brown, amber and crisp shiny copper (just like a penny) glow with a nice tint, especially when held up to a light. Aroma of deep honey and super pungent spices with a lot of grain, toffee and deep caramelised sugar with perhaps some ginger noticeable. Medium-bodied; Deep robust malt and caramelised sugars with a lot of pungent and deeper toffee and spice notes that dominate the finish and also show a lot of astringency, especially at the end. Afertaste shows as malt with some caramel, a dose of grain, bananas and more pungent German or even Belgian yeast strain, with a deep finish that shows deep flavours, even on the very end. Overall, decent at best - I'm not sure which style of beer they were going for, but this tastes as a combination of a herrb/spice/veg and a Brown Ale. Not bad, but they usually produce much better beer - this is perhaps too pungent and malt-forward. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Whole Foods in Arlington (Pentagon City), Virginia on 14-June-2019 for US$2,99 sampled at my house here in Washington, a few blocks away on 01-July-2019.

Draft pour at Novemberfest 2014. Poured a clear copper color with a small white head. Aroma was nice ginger notes, sweet malt. Flavor was a seriously powerful ginger one - shaved ginger. Very tasty for people who enjoy ginger. Very nice. Tasty. Girlfriend loved it - definitely a "Julie beer" here.
