650ml bottle - this might be a first for me, a ginger-flavoured Berliner Weissbier.
This beer pours a slightly hazy, medium golden yellow colour, with four fingers of puffy, finely foamy, and yet fizzy off-white head, which leaves some random coral reef pattern lace around the glass as it slowly but evenly subsides.
It smells of real ginger ale, gritty and grainy cereal malt, lemongrass, some muddled earthy spiciness, and very faint leafy, weedy, and floral noble hop bitters. The taste is grainy and crackery pale malt, a lesser biscuity wheatiness, some relatively laid-back ginger (when compared to the aroma, that is), aged lemon peel, a hint of testy coriander and salt-lick spice, and more understated earthy, grassy, and floral green hoppiness.
The carbonation is fairly active in its palate-surrounding frothiness, the body a so-so middleweight, and actually pretty smooth, once you get acclimatized to that ginger heat, natch. It finishes trending dry, the mixed malt, ginger, and lingering lemon still doing a bang-up imitation of craft soda.
Overall - yeah, this is another gooder from this sassy Cowtown brewing concern, and a nice u-turn from all the NEIPAs that they've been pumping out of late (not that I'm complaining). Anyways, crisp, refreshing, and a very pleasant tipple on this sunny (if windy) holiday afternoon.
