    Very odd beer smoke smells like soup. Fairly standard looking brew with a gold body and minimal white cap. Dark smelling lager with a hint of what I’ll guess is the ginseng. I just can’t shake the aroma of soup. Tate is also standard dark grainy lager with hints of the ginseng or is it dirt hard to tell. Man this stuff even taste like soup, Mr. noodle beef or possibly pork. Brew is drinkable and diffently taste different then any other beer I’ve tried but I see no reason to ever drink this again.

    Poured out an average sized white cap on a clear, light amber brew with minimal retention and a bit of small spotty slippery lacing. The aroma is apple, grain and what I will guess is ginseng. The taste is odd with it being sort of sour but not really, grainy, citrus (not like good citrus you get from wonderful hops), a bit of bread? I'm not going to bother describe this further. Smooth, nears light medium bodied, maybe a bit over carbonated, ends with an acceptable aftertaste that isn't that far off from a Euro lager. Some how this is 100% drinkable as bad as it sort of seems.
