Pours a hazy, orange-gold, with mid-sized head. Aroma is citrus, tropical fruit, and ginger. Flavor follows (it's actually quite a tasty addition). Fairly soft mouthfeel. Moderate hop bitterness at the finish. (Is this just a new name for their beer i-Lucky? Sorry if that's the case)

Pours a hazy, golden orange, with mid-sized head. Aroma of ginger, some hops. Flavor is ginger, some spice, some citrus and tropical fruit notes, and a bit of hoppy bitterness at the finish. It's a good combo of flavors, really--the ginger adds a nice element to the whole. Soft, sweet mouthfeel.

Tap into a tumbler showing hazy cloudy orange with a finger of clean white foam. The nose shows dry wood and cannabis. The palate is smoothly carbonated and medium bodied (once again light and foamy). Flavors of dry but forward ginger and light banana on the finish. Not bad.

Draught at the brewery, 4/2/16.
Very pale, straw-golden with just a hint of bright, sunny orange. Quite hazy, with a large white head that shows moderate retention.
Ginger is certainly there, but it’s not even necessarily the first thing you notice, being well balanced between mandarin orange and meyer lemon notes. It dries out significantly towards the end, with light white grape, wet straw and unripened guava from the sorachi. Light honey and a touch of perfume, with no toastiness from the rice (I assume the rice is toasted). No alcohol or flaw.
In the mouth it’s lightly bitter, with floral notes and spicy ginger character that is very, very well-done, which is to say, very conservatively done. Spicy hints of pine, soft, dank green notes and lightly sweet honey character from the malt. Low carbonation, but engagingly tight. No alcohol noted. Earth, grain and spice all balanced and interesting, mixing with the more dry, not-in-your-face hops. Awesome.

LSAT Freedom Trip #120. Keg at the brewery. Hazy orange, large foamy tan head, good retention. Aroma of spicy ginger, floral notes, grain, pale malt. The taste is ginger, earth, pale malt, citrus. Medium bodied, lingering bitterness, mild building spice, well balanced.

Can shared by Kyle, thanks! Pours a clear light peachy gold with a white head that dissipates completely. Aroma combines ginger and citrus well with a light grain backbone. Flavor is similar with ginger and sweet citrus throughout with a light grain backbone.

Poured from can thanks Willrunforbeer. Hazy orange hold pour with somewhat frothy white head. Aromas of citrus and ginger with hint of hop. Taste is crisp and full of ginger and citrus. A nice beer.

16 oz can thanks to Willrunforbeer on this one. Hazy yellow color with thin lasting head. Aroma is tons of ginger root, light lemons and a light mineral element.
Flavor is a huge element of ginger root that is found through out the sip. The hop profile is only found in a lemon/ citrus character. Very light herbal hints. This lemon drop hop variety isn’t something most people are accustomed to yet, I don’t know much about it. This IPA seems to be overrun with ginger root and has a low hop bitterness. If you like ginger root and rice well... You should enjoy the hell out of this.
