Description
In 1905, Thomas Fentiman, an iron puddler from Cleckheaton, England was approached by a fellow tradesman for a loan. A deal was struck and a recipe for botanically brewed ginger beer was provided as security. The loan was never repaid so Thomas became the owner of the unique recipe.

NOTE: PLEASE DO NOT ADD FENTIMAN'S GINGER BEERS HERE. THEY ARE NOT ALLOWED ON BREWVER.

Bottle at Beerwarming Party. Pours a mostly clear gold with a subtle, off-white head. Sugar and candy aroma with some spices and citrus. Very sweet flavor, some lemon and tea-like notes, hints of bread. A little reminiscent of ginger ale. Medium in body with average carbonation. Finishes sweet and a little syrupy. Not bad.

Bottle 27,5 cl. Pours a clear golden with an off-white head. Strangely unclean solvent aroma. Light body, unclean and strange biscuity notes, only a little sweet lemon. I must say I prefer the proud German radler tradition instead of this! 150810

Bottle thanks to blutt59. Pours with a clear golden body and a fading white head. Aroma of Gatorade, and ginger. Taste is sugary, and sweet with teeth rotting sugar. Some lemonade. Fizzy. Not my thing.

Nice sweet taste, beer is noticeable on the back end only. Highly drinkable, aroma is more juice than beer.
