500ml bottle. Clear copper pour, small beige head. Earthy ginger, lemon, and toasted cereals. Mouth feel is a little thicker than i expected. Finish is pretty much just earthy ginger, with subtle spice.

Pours a golden colour, barely cloudy, with a big white head that is just slightly off-white. Carbonation is pretty elevated, keeping the head up, seems forever. Lots of stickiness to the glass. Aromas are sweet with the ginger, so not on the spicy side. The taste is on the sour side, so not sure if infected. Mild grain appears with some light ginger. Even some bad vegetable notes. The head gets creamier near the last pour and the brew, cloudier. Wish the ginger was spicier, more real. Not a fan of this one. Had better ginger beers recently, as this seems to be this summer’s faze.

Actually pretty tolerable for a ginger. Pours orange clear with ok head and lacing. Aroma of light, well-integrated ginger and malt. Like a proper Jamaican ginger beer with booze. Finishes with tasty ginger. Average carbonation. Tap at the Rhino summer fest.
