Had it at a tasting at Whole Foods. Pours yellow-orange with a frothy head. The aroma has lots of ginger, with some light malts coming through. The flavor is more of the same, with the ginger being the overwhelming factor. An interesting beer, though I’ve tasted better beers with heavy use of ginger. Worth trying out.

Oct 3, 2008 On tap at Ginger Man. Pours a light brown/amber with a small white head. Aroma of light ginger and sweet malt. Flavor is heavily spiced with lots of ginger. I guess if you liked ginger or spiced beers you’ll probably enjoy this one but I wasn’t really a fan.

Oct 2, 2008 Tap at Ginger Man. aroma of caramel malt, ginger, pepper, maybe some other herbal spiciness. Flavor mingles the ginger with some sweet wild berries, toffee and cracker, and just a touch of citrus. Very good, better and better as it goes along.

Oct 1, 2008 Tap at Ginger Man. Pale golden beer with a lively spicy nose. Nice rich spiciness is apparent. There is a fairly subtle ginger character in the nose. A light spiciness that is well integrated with the yeasty spiciness. The ginger is initially quite subtle, but it picks up as the beer warms up, as does the light Belgian yeasty spiciness. There is a really nice crisp/crackery maltiness. A bit of hoppy spice/grassiness comes through on the back.
