Poured from 650mL bottle. Clear amber colour with minimal white head, fair bit of carbonation. Very full gingerbread aroma - spices: clove, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg. Flavoured the same, but extremely mild, literally watery, can barely taste anything. Friend tried it and said, "Where’s all the flavour?!"

Light brown,lasting beige head.Great nose of ginger,nutmeg & cinnamon promises more than the palate delivers, mostly watery ginger

Draught at St. Augustine’s, Vancouver
Dark amber color, small head. Light aroma of cloves. Some caramel flavor, but very strong flavor of cloves (and then nutmeg and cinnamon) to overwhelm anything else. Too much, unbalanced, out of control.

Draught @ St. Augustine’s. Hazy amber. The aroma has a lot of cinnamon and nutmeggy accents, as well as light amber maltiness. Gingery and cinnamony notes on the palate, with light malts again. Balanced, with a gingery finish.
