Draught. Copper colour with some hazy, small head. Aroma is spices, citrus, tea and some herbs. Flavour is mild peated notes, some tea as well as herbs, caramel, spices, wood and toffee. A bit strange, but still drinkable.

Barcade, Philadelphia tap ($6): Pours a copper/brown colour with a small head. Aroma is like tea and herbs and ginger and stuff. Taste reminds me a little bit of DFH Sahtea. Kind of soda like taste. Tea-like quality with a hit of ginger. Kind of weird. Some lemony quality. Not terrible.

Tap at BP Dupont Circle. Unfiltered orange-tan. Steady white head. Straight up fruity ginger beer, sweet, not sharp or bitter. Lemon juice, dulled out, not so great. Very ginger dominate. Drinkable, but not impressive.

On draught at Barley Hopsters. The beer pours a clear golden-orange color with a medium off-white head that recedes steadily. Partial rings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of smoked malt and tropical fruit. Medium body with a peat and smoke character with notes of bready malt, lemon verbena and herbs. The finish is fruity with a charred wood aftertaste. Good flavors independently but they don’t work very well together. Barely average overall.

On tap at Akkurat during Brooklyn tap takeover, April 27, 2012. Slightly hazy golden with a medium, creamy white head. This was indeed a special one. A lot of lime both in the aroma and taste, also ginger and notes smoke. Ice cubes, perhaps?

Draught @ Akkurat. Unique brew, this one... The texture reminds me of soda, altough the taste is quite complex yet in balance. Notes of smoke, orange and preserved fruits. A bit dry. Kind of reminds me of the traditional finnish drink "sima".

Draught at Akkurat. Pours golden with a white head. Taste of canned citrus fruits (tangerines), hint of smoke and the same sweetness as in rauch biers. A fun brew that tastes a lot lik grapefruit tonic drink mixer.

Draught at Akkurat, Stockholm. Hazy golden, mid sized head. Heavy on ginger and lemon. Sweet with medium-full body and rounded mouthfeel. Orange peels and ginger marmelade. Low bitterness. Manages to retain balance with all the spices.
