Old rating from 2010 - 500ml bottle, and my first at the time from Sweden, hence trying something I wouldn't normally. Pours pale golden with a white foamy head. Aromas & tastes of soda water, sugar, ginger, toffee, hints of spice, hops & malt. Moderate body. Sweet finish. Passable if you like ginger beer, which I don't think I care for

Bottle at Craft Beer Clerkenwell thanks to Leighton ( I think), 09/03/13. Pale golden with a thin white head. Nose is ginger, sugars, spice. Taste comprises root ginger, sweet sugars, artificial sweet tones, touch of caramel. Medium bodied, light spritzy carbonation, sweet finish - way too sweet. Meh !

Bottle. A clear, golden beer topped by a small, off-white head. Very gingerish on the nose, so lemony it reminds me of a German radler. Yikes, the same goes for the flavor. Medium body. There’s ginger, and a slight ginger burn, but overall it’s super uninteresting and not very tasteful. Definitely not something I will search for, although I like the ginger finish. 111105

Can @ Ulfborg, Early Winter Tasting, 2011. Pours clear golden with a small creamy head. Lemon, lime, cola and a bit of ginger. Medium to thin body. Cola push up lolly from Lidl! A radler with a twist!
