Aug 11, 2008 Richmond Summer Gathering. Bomber courtesy of jcwattsrugger. Clear golden amber with a slight white head. Grainy nose, I got a vegetal note, but I was in the minority. Grainy flavor, some caramel - um, ginger? I have none. Eh.

Aug 9, 2008 Bottle at the Williamsburg Gathering courtesy of jcwattsrugger. Soft amber pour with a small head. Nose is surprisingly lacking in ginger. Some fruit and caramel, and grains in the aroma. Taste is grainy with caramel, light ginger, some fruit and sweet malts. Body is medium with soft carbonation. Finish is more caramel, fruit, sweet malts, and soft ginger. Not really much to this but I can see where this would pair well with Asian food.

Aug 6, 2008 22 oz. bottle shared by jcwattsrugger at the 2008 Richmond Summer Gathering in Williamsburg. Thanks John! Golden pour with almost no head. Fruity aroma with apple notes. Dry, slightly herbal taste. The ginger is almost noticeable here, but comes across as a more generic herbal note. Medium bodied.

Aug 3, 2008 Sample at the 2008 VT Brewers Fest - Poured a very clear light amber in color with a foamy white head that faded quickly. Some lacing. Aroma is slightly hoppy with only the barest hint of ginger. Flavor is mildly hoppy with a decent amount of malt mixed in. Slightly sweet at the end with the ginger only really showing up in the aftertaste. Interesting...
