bhensonb (4187), Woodland, California, USA Dec 8, 2007 Draft at the brewpub. Spicey, almost ginger aroma. Hazy darkish amber color with an off-white head that did some lacing. Medium body with near creamy carbonation. The flavor is orange/clove, and coriander, but as the fluid leaves there is a distinct ginger impression. Very different. Very tasty. Very Christmasy in its way. The finish is quite Belgian - somewhat sweet, but well balanced with bitter & tangy spice. Would be interesting to see the recipe. Reminds me of Blandford Fly, but more complex and intense.
