Amber colour, clean, with creamy head. Sticky malt and caramel base, some candy fruit feeling, orange peel. Not a bad beer, but you would expect a different IIPA in 2018.
Drinkable, but anachronistic.

Amber, with just a bit of chill haze. Odd aroma. Odd taste. The previous rater talks about ginger, but the ingredients on the can say nothing about that. So what I get is a vaguely caramel and cracker pale with moderate dryness. On the sweet side for sure. That flavour should be listed on the can so as not to deceive or confuse the drinker - I really don't know what I'm getting when I buy this. The beer overall comes across as being really old school, and not much fun. An odd choice of a beer to launch with.

Dark amber colour hazy. The aroma is lightly earthy. Caramel profile with some fruity esters from the yeast, a bit earthy too.
Ok beer, but these Ambers have been around for decades and can be found everywhere, also from macro breweries.

Can - Bready ginger notes. Clear copper with a rich off white head. Light ginger and a touch of sweet bready notes. Not bad for a sort of ginger beer.
