(Bottle) Clear, extremely pale straw colors, with a decent white head that was short lived, but transformed into a long lasting thin white head. Aroma is ginger beer, of the higher quality non-alcoholic type - nothing sweet, just ginger, and maybe a tiny hint of peppery spice. Palate is pleasant enough with bright carbonation and a somewhat syrupy feel. Taste is pleasant and interesting - it is almost entirely ginger, but the taste profile Cannes quite markedly. It starts pleasantly tart, then a decent ginger taste and bite builds up, which subsides into an over-sweet syrupy flavour, which to me does not seem to be malt, which then gives way to a vaguely bready and slightly gingery finish. Overall a reasonable ginger beer, a little over sweet towards then end, but more restrained than many alcopop ginger beers.
