Bottle. Amber with a short-lived, off-white head. Aroma of sweet malts, orange blossoms and citrus hops. Flavour also started with some sweetness, a hint of spice, huge citrus hops and a big bitter finish. Excellent stuff.

Guest Cask at the Evening Star, Brighton, East Sussex, UK on 23rd May 2009. A delicately spiced amber ale brewed with fresh root ginger. The ginger notes are not overpowering, as notes of aniseed and just a hint of lemongrass enter the palate on a smooth quasi-saline mouthfeel. The lemongrass note is most noticeable in the delicate, blended fruit aroma. Although for many, such a beer would be an acquired taste, I found the taste quite easy to acquire, and I’d seek it out again on a session where I’m being adventurous.
