500ml bottle from the Brewery Olniine Shop. Pours hazy gold, thin white head. Aromas of ginger and sugar, light yeastiness. Taste is ginger powder, more sugar. Lingering ginger powder. Not great.

Bottle at a ChrisO tasting - London. Pours clear, rich gold with a fine, bubbly white head. Very true ginger root nose. Light sweet flavor, plenty of stinging ginger, more sting than actual flavor, really. Light bodied with average carbonation. Ginger sting on the finish, moderate sweetness. OK. Quite spicy, in fact. Novel.

Bottled. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is spicy, rather gingery and some slight burning notes. Flavour is ginger, some floral notes along with mild maltyness. Yet a quite mellow ginger beer.
