Commercial Description:
Cask; Regular.
The launch of Gold Spice in the Festive Season proved so successful, we are planning to keep it in stock for the new year. Gold Spice is a light coloured 4% ABV beer with plenty of late Boadicea hops giving a refreshing citrus fruit taste, stem ginger is then added to the cask to deliver a delicious zing of fresh ginger.

28th September 2007. St Albans Beer Fest. Oh dear. This rate comes at the end of a long days drinking. All I wrote was ’A very light ginger ale, very drinkable’

(Cask at Kitty’s, Helsinki) Poured golden and almost clear with small white head. Aroma contained spices and fruitiness. Palate was medium bodied with low carbonation. Tasted of malts, ginger, hops, bitterness and lightly fruity. Ginger and bitterness in aftertaste.

Cask@Kitty’s.
Yellow color, steady white head. Dish cleanser lemony aroma with hints of ginger. Light palate. Lemony fruity flavor with lots of ginger. A bit sweet too. Summer drink which is not very exciting.

Cask (South Western Arms, Southampton) - Golden in colour. Spicy aroma with ginger, hops and spicy malt. The taste is hoppy with some citrus elements and a bit of a spicy kick from the ginger. Refreshing and enjoyable.

Bottle from CAMRA Beer Club. Whilst I’m not a great fan of beers flavoured with ginger, this one does what it says on the bottle. Poured a light golden colour, with a creamy head that lasted well down the glass. Quite hoppy with a strong citrus flavour well complemeted by a clear, but not overwhelming, taste of ginger. A nice version of this type of beer.

Bottle that a friend had brought along to Towersey Festival 2009 Poured amber with a white bubbly head, bit sharp and most ungingerlike, in fact I would suggest that this is probably infected, its very poor, couldn’t even finish my fairly modest sample, told my friend to inform his supplier (CAMRA beer club) that this was no good because I also had a sample the night before which was equally ropey. Will try again on cask hopefully. A3 A4 F2 P1 Ov5 1.5

Cask-conditioned at the Royal Oak, Bath 18/07/09. Pale gold with a slight white head. Aroma had hints of citrus and ginger. Flavour was sweet and malty with some ginger in the finish. A bit dull.

Cask conditioned at The Garricks Head, Bath. Gold with white head. Thin, quite dully spiced beer with a bland malty flavour. Somewhat bready in the finish, fairly disappointing.
