This is a Ginger IPA. The beer has a subtle infusion of root ginger giving the IPA a refreshing and spicy addition to the citrus and floral taste and aroma provided by the hops.

Bottle from Ealing Beer Festival 2015, Ealing, London. A hazy golden coloured pour with a medium white head on top. Ginger, spice aroma. Taste is ginger, spice, hoppy, slightly dry. Quite pleasant.

Bottle courtsey of the wonderful and supremely generous Peter Fowler of Shoulder of Mutton, Wantage fame. Consumed at home Sunday 10th August 2014 Neither overtly hoppy or zippingly ginger but there is a little ginger warmth and the hops do show. Pleasant beer but it is if it is trying to hard to please to different camps and not quite achieving either aim. I like it but only in a decent glugging moderately hoppy slightly gingery beer way.

Very hazy orange - amber beer, tidy pale cream colour head. Palate is light and dry and a little crisp. Light dry malt. Mellow ginger, fruity floral more than hot. Moderate orange hops are well integrated. Light dry finish. Nice enough but both hops and ginger could be much bolder.
