Bottle. Pours with a hazy golden yellow hued body with what appears to be minimal carbonation. Aromas are of strong, raw ginger, lightly zesty limes, apple, low sulfur, lemongrass, chai tea, and some earthy/woody notes. Flavors are bitter, herbal and spicy. Not very dry, somewhat medicinal. Lemongrass, ginger, pinesol, bug spray. What really hurts is the low carbonation (~2.2 vol), with a moderately tannic body. Feels a bit muted/flabby. Okay acid balance. Decent.
