Aromas are malt and spices. Flavors are similar to nose. Bittersweet. Okay body and carbonation. Kind of basic but not bad.

Can - this is pretty solid - reminds me a little bit of the golden age of Southampton Double White before Southampton went to shit - real OGs know what the fuck I’m talking about - this one is a little heavy-handed on the spice, but it is soft and full in the mouth and has a nice clean honey sweetness to it - soft wheat notes and some orange peel on the back end - to heavy on the ginger, but quite nice.
