The beer pours a hazed metallic gold with a thin white ring for a cap. The aroma was wheat, ginger, and herbs. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour was very reminiscent of a ginger pale ale, no sour notes to speak of.Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 8
