Bottle I brought to the RBSG 2014 Grand Tasting at Schlafly Tap Room. 2013 release. Dark brownish black with light tan head. Aromas of ginger, mint, chocolate. Tastes of chocolate, ginger, light mint, caramel. Medium-full body with a dry finish. Better fresh but interesting to see how it’s changed with some mintiness coming through..

Bottle shared by Ken at Capitol Beer in Sacramento, CA. Pours black with orange glints and a tan head. Aroma of gingerbread and dark malt. Full bodied. Flavor is very gingerbread over smooth dark malt. Ginger sort of functions to offset malt. It is extremely tasty.

Many thanks to my secret santa nimbleprop for this beer.
Dark in the glass with a great and creamy head. The beer starts smooth, intense and highly drinkable. Absolutely great mix between smooth and not-too-sweet malty body with great ginger-spices. The alcohol is not tastable. The aftertaste is long, smooth, velvet. Caramel, fudge. Nicely bitter in the aftertaste.
Absolutely great beer! --> 15/14/15/14

Bottle shared at the Double Medium tasting, big thanks to Jack, 03/01/14. Dark mahogony brown with a thin light tan head that clears to a pond. Nose is Jamaica Ginger Cake, light roasty tones, chocolate, toffee. Taste comprises light roast, cocoa powder, dark toffee, gingerbread, sweet tasting. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying closure. Decent work, solid for style, ginger is pretty well restrained but evident.

Bottle thanks to Jack at the monster 2-page tasting. It pours deep brown with a minimal beige head. The nose is Jamaican ginger cake, brown bread, spice and treacle. The taste is gingerbread, earth, toast, light roast, fiery ginger, brown bread, lactose and warming alcohol with a dry finish. Medium body and fine, prickly carbonation. Does what it says on the tin (or bottle), but could get a bit sickening after a while.

Bottle shared at the Track Set tasting in London. Big thanks to Jack for this one. Pours clear, dark brown with a fine, creamy off-white head. The nose has dry cinnamon, some faint leaves, berries, bread. Medium sweet flavor with sugary and lightly toasted bread, semi-dry berries, cranberry, cinnamon. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. More cinnamon in the finish, some jerk spices, well toasted bread, very slight cocoa. Really nice stuff but not much stout character. Still, good beer.
