(Draught at Beer Temple, Amsterdam, 17 Feb 2016) Amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Fruity, spicy nose with notes of ginger, orange peel, caramel and candied ginger. Fruity, herbal taste with ginger, orange, candy sugar and a fairly sweet finish with a soapy ginger character. Medium body, with a certain sweetness. Interesting and spicy, with a lot of ginger, but it still works quite well. Quite nice.

On tap at the Shirokita Park Fest. It pours a beautiful copper gold. The nose is a lovely enticing ginger. The smooth medium body gives you earthy sweet ginger with a round carbonation. The taste is earthy ginger with a bit of biscuit and lemon. Quite nice.

22 oz. bottle, pours a dark golden with a small white head. Nose brings out lots of ginger root upfront, with a little candied sugar. Flavour brings out lots of dry ginger root, with a dry toasted bready malt backing. Nothing special, but it's competent. Meh.

Crisp, crystal clear golden coloured body with a thick, three centimetre tall just off-white head. Aroma of ginger (surprise), malt, alcohol, caramel and a hint of earth and floral notes. Light-bodied; Sharp ginger flavour with a hint of malt, some light sugars and an overly spicey finish showing some warmer notes. Aftertaste shows the ginger front and centre, some malt, some earth and a little sugar - not much else. Fairly one dimensional and spicey. Overall, not a bad beer, but not great...but it’s labeled perfectly: Ginger Beer. Period. I sampled this 65 cL bottle purchased from Olive Tree Market Place in San Diego, California on 05-May-2012 for US$4.49 sampled at home in Washington on 04-October-2012.
