Semmi hab, átlátszó borostyán szín. Gyenge, szinte érezhetetlen, kissé gyömbéres illatok. Gyenge, lágeres alap, még halványabb gyömbéres mellékízzel. Jellegtelen sör, utóíz nélkül.

Fast gone white head over medium carbonated, greenish clear golden beer. I smell diacetyl, butterscotch, instead of ginger. And worse, nothing else, diary. A bit less diacetyl in the flavour, and a soupçon of spice. Knowing it, one COULD guess ginger. Light, not very carbonated, somewhat slick. This isn’t a symphony. This is a jingle, at best. Ďakujem, Peter!

Tap at Marionett Craft Beer House, Budapest. Poured a hazy straw colour with a thin broken white head. The aroma is yeast, light ginger, some citrus hop. The flavour is light to moderate bitter with a creamy yeast, light marmalade citrus hop palate. A little pricey but pretty good. Didn’t really get the ginger in the flavour though.

Pours a fairly clear pale yellow color, topped with a rather small white head. Mild aroma, some fresh zesty notes and a hint of ginger. Taste is mildly bitter, a bit zesty with peppery finish (ginger). Presence of ginger is very mild, but noticeable. Nicely drinkable and enjyoable.

Bottle. Aroma reveals yeast at first, but ginger comes out a few seconds later, also light lemony. Head dissipates quickly. Almost clear yellow colour. Taste immediately shows rather thin body, moderate ginger flavour, but only minimal heat. Pasteurisation clearly present in the finish. I previously drank this on tap, albeit drunk, so I did not rate. I remember it being fuller, light honeyish maltiness complementing the ginger, and being very close to their Med a zázvor back when it was a good beer. This bottled version still awakes those memories (unlike Med a zázvor these days) but I’d say at half the intensity. All in all remains a good and interesting beer. Seek out the tapped version, if possible. So will I for a possible rerate.

Tap at Fabrika pub, Bratislava. Yellow color with medium white head. Ginger, oranges in aroma. Citrus fruity taste with nice ginger kick. Oranges, ginger in finish. Good.
