Bottle. It’s a clear, golden beer with a small, dense, off-white head. The aroma is dominated by ginger, with some lemony hints and a generic spicyness. There’s some cloves in the flavor, a touch of lemon, but mostly it’s ginger and ginger and ginger. Medium to thin on the palate, dry and quenching, but overall it’s way too dominated by ginger. Like most ginger beers seems to be, especially the English ones. 121219

Bottle. It’s a semi-clear, golden beer topped by a small, off-white head. The aroma is mostly hoppy, with flowers, fruityness and some malty hints. The flavor too is a bit weak, flowery and fruity, with a nice bitterness, some malty sweetness and a hint of alcohol. Medium to full body, soft and pleasant. Bitter and fruity finish. An easy drinkable beer that doesn’t impress in any way, but at least there’s no flaws. 121219

Bottle. It pours a semi-clear, dark golden body under a small, dense, off-white head. Plums, cellar hints, some generic fruityness and fruit stones. Some maltyness in the flavor, fronted by fruityness, some plums, pine cones and a decent bitterness. Medium body, quite dry. A quenching beer, but far from impressive. 121219

Golden tinted light brown ale. Medium to full bodied with a frothy head and dominant mild bitterness as its taste. Hint of fruit in its aroma and a mild spice texture.

Clouded glowing golden ale which keeps some head. Full of fruity flavours like most good pales and aroma to match.

50cl bottle at Kodu Baar, Tallinn. Pours hazy golden with a lasting white head. Lightly wheaty and fruity with some unpleasant aromas. Medium sweet with a quite dry and lightly bitter finish. Not a favourite, but quite drinkable. (2012-11-18)
