May 31, 2008 Cask, as Easton Spice (4.5%), end of cask@Kitty’s. Mildly hazy yellowish golden colour with mediumsized fluffy head. Aroma is some spices, herbs as well as caramel malts and some fruityness. Flavour is really spicy, almost tabascoish burning. at first red tabasco, when warming almost habanero hot. The spices pretty much cover everything except a certain bitterness. I like my spices in food, not necessarily in a beer...

Mar 26, 2008 Cask handpull at County Hotel, JDW, Ashford. Gold with thin ivory head. Quite an inviting aroma of mixed spice and the base beer is fine, but oh dear, the spice is rather unsubtle and unintegrated. Ginger and chillis really come through. Aroma is rather good. OK golden bitter, bit too much chilli on finish for me, but still, makes a change to standard bitters/golden ales.

Apr 22, 2008 A Mes rate: Cask at the Sporkspears Head.
Cloudy yellow brown with a McSporks sparkler head. Good earthy malt aroma with some lemony hops and a bit of pepper on top. Definite coriander in the aroma with some orange peel, a bit of cinnamon and other spicy stuff. Lasting ginger aftertaste that really makes it for me. Plenty of character just not amazing.

Apr 26, 2008 Cask, The Last Plantagenet, Leicester. Hazy gold with an off-white head. Aromas are spices, especially ginger. Dry with some citrus. Flavours are yeasty with citrus. Not very spicy until a ginger beer "burn" turns up. Interesting but not great.

Mar 30, 2008 Cask conditioned - handpump - JDW Northampton. A slightly hazy straw coloured beer with an off-white head. The aroma is spicy hops which is replicated in the taste. The beer tastes hot but there’s no real spicy notes (ie the chilis and ginger), the heat is more from the peppery type hops. It’s actually really tasty and enjoyable.
