Bottle at home picked up from local Sainsbury’s. A light hazed golden orange coloured pour with a little fizz and no head. Aroma is sweet sugars, candied ginger, spicy, canada dry, woody. Flavour is composed of medium sweet sugars, fiery ginger, spicy finish. Palate is very sweet, highish carbonation, sticky. More like a sweet soft drink. Not bad at all.

500ml bottle from Sainsbury’s pours golden with a light haze, no head. Aromas of stemmed ginger, preserved in syrup. Ginger nuts. Taste is sweet, light ginger heat on the finish. It grew on me.

Bottle. Golden with no head and a small carbonation. It’s very spicy, and this lingers with a small burning sensation in the palate. There’s lots of ginger in the nose.

50cl bottle. Hazy straw with an immediately dissipating white head and heavy carbonation; gingery aroma; sweet gingery taste and gingery finish with some heat. Not much trace of the beer, and much too sweet for me.

500ml bottle. Clear deepish gold with no head. Ginger ale style aroma. More a ginger beer like a soft one than a hard one. Bit perfumed bit sweet. Ok but I like my ginger beers to be a bit more beery. Easy drinking. Good ginger bite on end but a touch too perfumed.

Bottled at chriso’s. Clear pale golden, no head. Powerful ginger aroma. Cough inducing ginger ale flavour. Light bodied with burning spicy finish. Over gingered.

Bottled. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is ginger, citrus and that’s about it. Flavour is ginger, pepperroot, some mango, other fruits, mild sweetish vegetables and some very citrusy notes. Wellbalanced and quite nice.

500ml bottle. Pours orange with no head. Aroma is sweet and fiery ginger. Taste starts with light ginger and fiery ginger on the finish. Thin and fizzy. Might be made by Freeminer but this seems more like an alcopop.
