A traditional style Ginger Beer, made with a malt base, lashings of fresh ginger root, a touch of organic cane sugar, lemon juice & yeast… that's it! Our ginger has a distinctly 'beery' taste without the bitterness of hops. Creating a refreshing, malty spiced brew.

Tasting Tips from the Brotherhood
Colour
Make yourself comfortable in a well-lit room. Pour your beer into a glass and take a good, long look.
Describe what you see. Is it clear or cloudy? Does the foam on the head stick around or quickly dissipate? Is that foam "rocky" or "fluffy" and how would you describe its colour? Does the foam leave "lace" on the glass as you sip the beer? And the bubbles? Tight and champagne-like or larger and more bulbous?
Finally, colour: Use as many words as you want to describe it.
- Pale, Yellow

Aroma
Did you know the sense of smell accounts for about 80% of flavor perception?
Okay, here we go: Let your freshly-poured glass of beer breathe for a few moments. Now, give it a few brief sniffs. Swirl the glass a bit—like you’ve seen wine-buffs do—and have another whiff. Look past the obvious "smells like beer" responses. What other aromas are you getting? Maybe toasted malts, piney hops, maybe ester-and-phenol-producing yeast? Fruit? Spices?
- Ginger, Lemon, Malty, Sweet

Tasting Tips from the Brotherhood
Taste
Now that you have visually inspected your beer & described its aroma, you can engage in tasting. Remember that tasting is about the transition of flavors from the first sip contact through the finish.
Allow the beer to coat the inside of your mouth. Allow the liquid to run the full gamut of your tongue and hit all those taste bud areas, importantly, the bitterness receptors at the back of the tongue.
Now, describe the length, intensity and quality of the finish.

Amazing! Best Ginger Beer by FAR!
This isn't ginger beer - a sweet, sugary kids drink. This is beer, proper, delicious beer. The ginger flavouring is delicate and the beer itself is a perfect thirst quencher. One of my favourite ever beers.
