I popped this open tonight with a little trepidation. I know I like ginger ale, but this kind of ginger ale? Pours with a good head, semi-cloudy medium brown. Strong spice aroma.\u00c2\u00a0 It would take me a while to identify if I didn&#8217;t know what it was, but if you know then the aroma is unmistakeably ginger. It&#8217;s actually an intriguing aroma, but unfortunately I don&#8217;t like the transition to the taste. What bothers me is that it is sweet, which then kind of masks the strong hops and bitter. Fairly alcohol high at 7%.<\/p>\n<p>I have to say I really don&#8217;t care for this one, and I don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s so much the ginger as the other flavors.
