Commercial Description:
Ingredients: Water; Malted barley; Ginger root; Hops; Yeast.
Our beer is basically a pale ale brewed from a relative low gravity, with some of the hops which would normally be used in the beer replaced by freshly ground ginger root. The beer is light in body, lower in alcohol, has a distinct ginger aroma, and has a very crisp finish. It was initially brewed as a refreshing alternative to the plethora of wheat beers which are popular in the summertime. Popular demand turned it into a year round beer.

Bottle @ home. Golden orange colour, white head. Aroma of fruits, ginger and some sugar. Taste is ginger mixed with amber beer flavours, like sweet malts. Not too sweet though, actually quite refreshing. A nice surprise, this beer.

This was a different beer. However it wasn’t good. All the taste was of ginger. If you love a strong ginger taste and that’s all then try this. If you aren’t a ginger lover then this beer will suck. It’s all ginger

Bottle at Kuma’s. Thought I’d give this one a go. I knew there would be ginger character, but holy cow! Pour is deep coppery color, nose is very bready and very ginger. little to no hop character. I’d say the taste is similar, at first a bit shocking, but then the ginger mellows out. Very bready with a spiciness from the ginger. Interesting...

Bottle. Sweet aroma, a lot of ginger. Average sized white foamy-creamy head, clear orange body. Moderate bitter, a feeling as if something would cover my tongue and mouth, strange; medium duration. Light to medium body, dry texture, flat carbonation. Not my taste.

A reasonable botanical, but the main issue with this beer is that although the ginger presence is good it is sitting in a beer that isn’t. Not the disaster that a number of additive beers prove to be, but this one would be greatly improved if the beer itself was better.
