Dec 15, 2004 Bottle. Medium smooth white head that was mostly diminishing with fine-small sized bubbles, semi-transparent, carbonated, fair lacing, and a pale yellow hue. Malty, sweet, spicy, peppery aroma. Flavor was sweet, spicy and peppery. Tingly mouthfeel. Light-medium bodied beer.

Apr 21, 2007 Bottle. Hazy gold with a small white head. Nose is STRONG ginger and not much else. Taste features a more subdued ginger, soft grains, and sweet malt. It’s still sort of lop-sided towards the ginger, though. Body is light and bubbly. Leaning towards dry in the finish. Ends with, you guessed it, more ginger. Softer grains and sweet malts. Not horrible but one of these is more than enough unless you’re a ginger junkie.

Oct 24, 2005 Jax Package Store, SandySprings, Ga. - 12 oz bottle. Pours a slightly dark golden to light orange with a thin wispy white head - some sediment floating about. Ginger like aroma - smells like the stuff I never eat on a sushi platter. Flavor is reminiscent of slightly stale ginger ale, with a slightly tinny after taste, not much else. Mouthfeel is quite thin. Nothing to write home about.

Feb 10, 2008 12 oz bottle. Poured a clear medium orange color. Head was thin, white, and reduced quickly to a thin film. Aroma was of distinct, but subdued ginger, and a whiff of cinnamon roll. Dry on the tongue with flavors of ginger, lemon, and savory scone. Light and refreshing. Would be nice on a hot day.

Sep 11, 2007 12ozer from the brewery. Pours orange/amber with a 2 finger chunky white head. Not much in the nose. Taste is sweet with a little bite, ehhh. I love the name as I love the Island but damn this needs so much more.

Aug 24, 2006 gold color. floculent in colloidal suspension. peaked creamy white head. smells like peaches - and ginger. ... and mary ann. big ginger flavor. a wheat ale. ginger is the middle flavor, with jasmin leading off and wheat taste closing. complex herbal tea aroma. ginger numbs the mouth slightly. slight lemon taste throughout. the ginger is strong and pleasant - perfect to drink with sushi?

Nov 13, 2009 Color of dirty water. Very light ginger in the flavor and aroma, but a beer with very little flavor. Light palate, and it is hard to taste the ginger without a very big sip.

Aug 10, 2005 On tap at the brewery. Cloudy golden color with a thin white head. Aroma and flavor of wheat and ginger. Light body, oily texture, soft carbonation. Interesting and original but I’m not a big fan of ginger beers.
