Can from Yamaichi. Nicely fruity nose, lemon, orange, passion fruit, rather tropical, plus some honey and clean malts. Dark golden. Clear. Low, fine head. Malty, sweet flavor, light caramel and bread, very fruity, with citrus and a bit of tropical fruit. Somewhat chewy. Nicely bitter finish that last long. Good stuff, though nothing really out of the ordinary.

Bottle. White Wax. Pours with a black hue and a tan head. Aromas are strongly creamy, huge vanilla, chocolate ice cream, cookie dough nose. Cocoa nibs, low roast, ice cream and barrel. Flavors are chocolatey and a bit chalky. Vanilla. Powdery, lots of cocoa, mild grainy. Medium carbonation, but feels a touch thin. Amazing aroma though!

Can. Deep amber body with orange highlights. Frothy, off-white head. Aroma of resin, grapefruit, peach, citrus, orange, toasted grain, raw hops, caramel. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly to moderately bitter. It finishes lightly to moderately sweet and moderately bitter. Medium body, chewy texture, lively carbonation. Resin/pine hops dominate the taste, balanced by sweet crystal malt. But ti still comes off as raw, resiny hops and husky grain.

Pours pitch black with a foamy head. Aroma of roasty malts, hints of vanilla, chocolate, oak and bourbon. Taste is quite sweet with hints of vanilla, roasted malts, chocolate and bourbon. Finish of vanilla notes, sugary syrup, oak and bourbon. Okay, quite tasty imperial porter.

Crisp, crystal clear golden coloured body with a thick, three centimetre tall just off-white head. Aroma of ginger (surprise), malt, alcohol, caramel and a hint of earth and floral notes. Light-bodied; Sharp ginger flavour with a hint of malt, some light sugars and an overly spicey finish showing some warmer notes. Aftertaste shows the ginger front and centre, some malt, some earth and a little sugar - not much else. Fairly one dimensional and spicey. Overall, not a bad beer, but not great...but it’s labeled perfectly: Ginger Beer. Period. I sampled this 65 cL bottle purchased from Olive Tree Market Place in San Diego, California on 05-May-2012 for US$4.49 sampled at home in Washington on 04-October-2012.
