A medium body and moderate bitterness with refreshing hints of ginger and coriander. An unconventional ale. Best enjoyed under a palm tree.

Keg at Sir William’s, Ljubljana. Cloudy pale golden, small head. Fruity coriander aroma. Mid dry with light body and well rounded mouthfeel. Mild flavoured, but dominated by ginger, coriander and citrus. Low bitterness.

50cl bottle in Ljub pours a very murky gold with some thin, white head. Nose has a ton of ginger and coriander, lemon-lime soda, straw, some dust. Flavor follows, all ginger and spice, coriander and white pepper, even a little tumeric, some straw, mild grist. Spicy finish. The level of carbonation was distracting.

Bottle. Pours hazy orange, large of white head, dissipates fairly quickly, good lacing. Aroma is spices, wheat, coriander, ginger, hay, floral, pepper. Flavor follows, kind of a mix between a Saison and a wit, light sweet, light plus bitter. Medium body, high carbonation. Nice.

On tap at Ljubljanski Festival Piva 2015. Cloudy orange coloured, small white head, ginger and coriander in the nose. Coriander, ginger, fruits and mild hoppy with light bitterness in the finish. Not bad for a summer beer but too much spices for my taste.

Bottle from Za Popen’t. Poured a murky orange/ochre body. Citric aroma, sweet, dough, coriander. Coriander dominates the relatively soft body, mild hop, light bitterness, light tartness. Ok, but hardly thrilling and underwhelming compared with their other two beers.

Pours a very hazy yellow color, topped with a big and lastingl white head. There is a quite strong spicey aroma, some yeasty smell as well, both ginger and coriander balancing each other. The taste is fresh and spices can be easily felt, but are not too intrusive. The sourish and peppery feel of ginger is especially nice. Very drinkable and refreshing.

Draught at 2. festival mikro pivovarjev (Cameral Bar, Koper). Hazy golden amber color with thin creamy off-white head and nice lacing. Aroma of ginger, corriander and floral hops. Tastes refreshing fruity with light maltiness, decent spicy notes and medium bitter finish. Medium body, oily texture and soft carbonation in palate. Pretty decent summer ale, although it could have a bit bolder palate...
