Bottle 330ml (BB 10.02.2018). Delicate hazy yellow-orange colour. Small and short, white head. Aroma is poor with delicate, fruits note and a liitle bit malt behind. There is small to medium, herbal bitterness, quite nice overall. Beer is light, even a little bit watery, sweet-malty and excluding the bitterness, no more happens. Good to drink in hot day but definitely nothing special, rather poor NZPA and I'm disappointed with my first drunk New Zealand beer. I hope it will be better next time.

Bottle from an Albert Heijn in Ghent. Pours clear golden/orange with a small, frothy, off-white head. The aroma contains (bitter) hops, spices, orange, citrus, yeast and herbs. It tastes light fruity sweet and medium spicy bitter, with a hoppy, herbal finish. Medium body, slick texture, soft carbonation (giving it a rather watery feel). Not too complex in aroma; predictable in taste. Just okay.

Poured from a bottle at home. Light amber color, not much aroma and foam. But in the taste I liked the ginger, refreshing. For a warm day an alright starter.

Golden colour with quick fading head. Aroma and flavour are strong with ginger root and said ginger adds a gentle warmth. Light bodied and fresh. It’s not bad but I’m not keen on ginger.

Golden colour with lasting lacy head. It’s a beer with a fairly plain, pale malt taste. Lacks depth. Marginally better than a typical lager but for a much higher price.
