Thin white wine on a an unclear amber coloured body.
Ginger & fruity aroma.
Medium bodied, smooth with a soft cloying back.
Ginger, malt, vegetal & spiced tastes with a peppery finish.
Easy going but with a ginger kick.

First tried in cask at the Cuthbert Brodrick in Leeds. Clear golden with a creamy-frothy head. Has a nice easy-drinking texture with a light gingery character. Retried on 'Mad Friday' 2025 as Beer#10. Tenth brew on one of the busiest drinking days of the year, and it is busy! Clear golden good-looking ale. Hoppy with lots of tasty sugars, which I guess kind of makes it a wintery ale.

On cask at the Black Swan in Pickering. Appearance - golden with a decent head and a slight haze. Nose - nutmeg and cinnamon with ginger predominantly. Some biscuits. Taste - same again. Palate - close to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - for a Christmas beer this wasn’t bad.
