Small, white-greyish head, fast gone despite lively carbonation in veiled orangey golden beer. Very spicy nose, lavender springing to mind, as some pine needles, heather. Bathroom connotations.... Less outspoken above aromas in the mouth, plus arachide, caramel, ginger and some citrus. Better balanced, if yet not very attractive. Ultra light, watery appearance and at the edge of overcarbonation. Disappointing in this time and age.

Gyllen brun farge med hvitt lavt skum. Klar. Lukter av sitron og krydder. Ingefær?. Smaker malt, honningsødme. Mild og lettdrikkelig.

Clear pale to medium golden colour, good frothy white head, half-way lasting, good lacing. Aroma ginger, laos, lemon. Flavour medium to light heavy sweet and slightly bitter, lime, ginger, sugary. Thinnish sweet gingery and limey finish, refreshing, like a ginger beer or lemonade.

Bottle from the Star, Bishop’s Stortford. Mid- to dark gold. Nice big white head. Smells of ginger. Nothing but ginger. Like a ginger beer. Tastes spicy and slightly sour like a basic lager infused with ginger. Not getting honey at all. A bit of soft citrus on the finish. Nicely carbonated. Many problems but it’s refreshing enough to garner a half decent rate.

330ml bottle from a six-pack, bought at the tax-free store at Gardermoen Airport. Clear golden body, missing head, poor lacing. Smell of honey and ginger. Ginger flavours, overly sweet. Not my kind of beer (shared with friends, hotel room Islington London 11.04.2016).

Gylden brun klar med høyt offwhite skum. Tenkte gløgg med en gang når jeg luktet på denne. Ingefær, anis og noe karamell. Lett, noe ingefær og lett karamell i smak. Kort.
