33cl, beer with ginger, from De Hopduvel Gent, complex, hazy, good head, good brew

So it is possible to make a beer with ginger that tastes good! Very fruity aroma: sweet citrus and apple. Golden color, white head, good lace. Sweet, fruity, ginger, light bitter. Medium body, little sticky, warming and soft.

Bottled. Hazy golden with yeast particles. Small, white head. Pine-needles and marcipan, some fruitiness and hoppiness.

This bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a medium sized head of foamy fine to medium sized white colored bubbles that were mostly diminishing and left behind a hazy with suspended floatie strongly carbonated dark yellow colored body. The mild aroma was malty mild spice and mild floral. The mouth feel was tingly at the start and at the finish with a mildly biting aftertaste. The mild flavor contained notes of malt hops and floral. An OK brew just nothing special.

Hazy yellow color with a white head. The taste is sweet with ginger citrusy flavours. Has some notes of yeast. Refreshing.

Bottle at lowlander. Alround rating: Giner, woody, pine, yeasty, sweetish, the typical belgian fruity esters and relitivly balanced and quite drinkable.

Bottle: Poured a murky yellow with white froathy color head. The aroma jumped out of the glass as I was pouring it, very spicy with ginger bread wheat smell. The tingle was pleasant to my tongue and the dry veggy like finish was pretty good too.
