On tap at the brewery. Has an okay copper body with just a titch of foam. It actually smells like the shower curtain in my late grandmother's house, so kudos to them for bringing back that memory, though I doubt it was intentional. It tastes like overjuiced grains, again that rubbery character, too much sweetness to allow the other stuff to shine. Medium finish. It's an awkward blend.

On tap at Northpaw, pours a clear pale golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out gentle herbal and floral hops, and backed by biscuity malt. Flavour is similar, with herbal and floral hops, and biscuity malt. Pleasant enough but not much to write home about. Meh.

Draught at the brewery
Hazy golden colour. Good body strength, it has some light residual sweetness, a herbal character, between mint, heather and sweet liquorice; robust bitterness.
Not very pleasant given that herbal character.

Amber, with just a bit of chill haze. Odd aroma. Odd taste. The previous rater talks about ginger, but the ingredients on the can say nothing about that. So what I get is a vaguely caramel and cracker pale with moderate dryness. On the sweet side for sure. That flavour should be listed on the can so as not to deceive or confuse the drinker - I really don't know what I'm getting when I buy this. The beer overall comes across as being really old school, and not much fun. An odd choice of a beer to launch with.

Can - Bready ginger notes. Clear copper with a rich off white head. Light ginger and a touch of sweet bready notes. Not bad for a sort of ginger beer.
