Draft at the Siren tap room. Poured a clear golden colour with a thin broken white head. The aroma is fresh green apples. The flavour is moderate sweet, with a fresh, crisp, juicy apple palate. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation.

Bottle from Hogs Back shop. I'm not a fan of ginger but this is a new brewery tick... a strong aroma of the root. Very light gold. Almost clear. Very thin and patchy head of small translucent bubbles. Sweet with a sour edge. Light bodied. Thin. Average carbonation.. Extremely astringent finish. It's a fiery ginger beer so is a success on that basis.

330ml bottle. Sparkling golden colour, bubbly white foam head that slowly dissipates and aroma of fruity fleshy apple. Taste is sweetish, apple, fleshy, alittle pip & core, some light citric tartness and sugary undernotes. Medium bodied, spritzy carbonation, medium-dry finish. Quite OK.

Half pint at Mother Kelly's pours a mostly clear gold with greenish flecks, a little white head. Nose has, you know, apple. Flavor has a touch more complexity but only a touch, apples and caramel and some honey too. Finishes with enough carb to help with the off dry sweetness.

Draught. Hazy pinkish-orange color with hardly any head. Aroma is raspberry, apple funk, custard, cream. Taste is weird raspberry jam, apple sauce, vanilla, quite sweet. Fatty oily mouthfeel, flat. A bit weird, but probably not bad for what it is.
