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.

Can’t really smell any ginger. Honestly doesn’t tastes that great - a funkiness that I can’t attribute. Thickish, but with a realy odd flavor. Doesn’t get any better as it goes along.

12oz. bottled on 03-16-05. Pours a cloudy light orange-yellow with some floaties in it. Moderate creamy head. Aroma of ginger, pepper, and some slight sweet malts. Taste follows the aroma, with a clean finish. Kinda thin and watery on the palate. Not a bad beer--couldn’t really drink more than one in a sitting, and wouldn’t necessarily seek this one out.

Draft at O’Brien’s. Deep Yellow with a decent head. Aromas were ginger ale but not quite as sweet. Ginger on the tounge too, with a decent hop bite. Not bad. Worth a shot, but not something to have often.

looks like ginger ale when poured, kind of orangish amber, thin head, ginger aroma. very light taste with just the slightest hint of ginger. a hoppy after taste. i’m pretty underwhelmed.

Sampled from bottle. Pours cloudy orange-amber with a thin, creamy white head and nice lacing. Aroma is pleasant: tart, freshly grated ginger and sweet malt. Flavor also had ginger, but it is not dominant, but rather balanced with some bready malts and some spicy hops. Medium-light body and lightly carbonated. A refreshing, unique beer.

Cool beer. Certainly a pale ale in body and color. Nice white head that hangs around. The aroma is just intoxicating, ginger, fresh bread, and some cumin perhaps? Any way you cut it excellent beer and does wonderfully with asian and indian cusine, something very few beers can accomplish.

Hazy copper with a small head & peppered with yeast. Aroma of ginger is in tune with the season, seeming sprucey with clove. This is brewed with ginger, but I can see an aroma like this being produced naturally with the right combination of yeasts & hops. Flavor is honey-infused ginger ale, candy & flowers. A very lively mouthfeel makes the flavors "pop", although a more sedate approach would have sufficed.
