golden/amber color. Aroma is quite spicy, LOADS of ginger, some cadamon, nutmeg, lemongrass. Flvour is quite dominated by ginger, with a touch of lemon grass. A nice summer beer, hence the name. Would be a great lawnmower beer. decent.

Bottle 0,33ltr: Clear golden colored brew with an sweet bitter taste, much hints of ginger and some orange and honey. Little bit unbalanced, could be much better this brew from the far South Pacific.

330ml bottle (4.5% ABV) from Beers of Europe; BB 19th March 2022. Drank in my back garden on 29th August 2021. Light haze to the golden pour, weak white head. Not a fan of honey or ginger in beer and wouldn't have bought it if I'd known this was case. Luckily they are both mild in their influence, however they were the only two aromas and flavours I picked up on.

Ginger in the aroma. Dominant ginger flavor, with orange. Thin to medium bodied. Sweetish. Tonic. Fairly well made, but I just don’t like ginger.

Het is een koper kleurig bier met een dun schuim. Het heeft een moutige en sinaasappel achtige geur en smaak. Beetje flauw.

330ml bottle. Pours orange gold. Floral, ginger, honey. Crisp, clean beer with a nice level of ginger in it. One I've got a bit of a soft spot for, especially when the weather warms up.

Poured from a bottle at home. Light amber color, not much aroma and foam. But in the taste I liked the ginger, refreshing. For a warm day an alright starter.
