Fairly cloudy and hazy copper and bronze coloured body with a thinnish, and of course, fast-dying off-white and tan head that leaves nothing up top or on the sides after a few seconds. Aroma of strong ginger, ginger ale, caster sugar, light grass, a ton of apples and a good yeastie and bready finish that shows a lot of character, especially from the spice perspective with some allspice and coriander seed and a good hit of fennel as well. Light-bodied; Strong ginger and fennel notes with some star anise as well and canella with a bit of caster sugar and caramelised sugar notes and a touch of flowers near the end with a bit of aspartame and fake sugar elements near the end. Aftertaste shows the grassy, herbal, grainy and slightly piney flavour with some slight resinous notes but a ton of bubbles towards the end with a crisp and clean finish. Overall, a nice and flavourful, yet easy-going, crisp and slightly sweet finish hits nice notes throughout with the ginger, apples and canella that goes down easily, perhaps much easier than any 6,9 per center out there. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from MOM's Organic Market in Alexandria, Virginia on 28-February-2021 for US$3,99 sampled at my house here in Washington on the 6th day of my Advent Calendar on 06-December-2021.
