Bottle at the People’s Park Tavern, thanks to JF for sharing, 13/09/14. Clear golden with a big off white head of bubbles. Nose is root ginger, spice, fruit, banana bread. Taste comprises bread dough, straw, honey, ginger, fruit rinds. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. So so.

Bottle at peoples park tavern. Aroma is fake ginger cola! Somewhat sweet. Flavour is fentemens cola! Little spicy ginger. Flavour is thin ginger cola, spice and nutty malts. palate is light highish carbonation. Mediocre.

Pours a very pale golden color, topped with average white head that settles down quickly. Malty aroma, some sweet fruits and spices. The taste is sweet, slight soury feel, no real bitterness. Not the best one, really.

Bottle looks simple but really good. Beer in the glass zippy, nice head. Starts mild, fine malty fruity, hints of apricot and peach. Not very dry. Okay.

330ml bottle. Clear golden colour with average, frothy, diminishing, white head. Slightly artificial fruity aroma has a lime note, hints of orange, an indication of soap. Taste is dry with a dash of lemon, some lime, hints of orange zest, a minimally soapy touch of cilantro or so. Light body, easy drinkable, refreshing, but on the outskirts of the beer region.

Clear gold beer, suddy white head. Light and a little crisp and a little dry. Sweet lemon shandy! Slightly floral. Finishes dry. Can’t believe this is made with honey and not lemon!

Pours amber with a large, quickly fading head.Nose shows hefty ginger and what might be nutmeg? Pretty overpowering. Also a faint vegetal/herb-like character.Some ginger notes as flavours, followed by weak sweet malt and vegetal notes. No bitterness results in a cloying finish.Could use more carbonation to dry things out.

33cl bottle. Golden beer with gentle bubbles and some head, some of which hangs about. The nose has malt, honey and so much ginger! The taste is pretty much ginger beer with a ginger burn on the end. The palate has medium structurre and texture with a clean zingy finish. The overall impression is of enjoyment but it’s confusing. There is no mention of ginger on the bottle, but it so obviously is!
