Mix and pat, and bake in a pan, get this gingerbread ale while you can. Dough Head mixes the best of brewing and baking to create a beer with a touch of spice that is balanced with a malty sweetness.

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?!"

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.
