Fab white bubbly head, fairly light off gold body.
Nice bit of (fading) apricot on the nose.
Nothing outstanding or remarkable tho it's fairly well balanced- Lemon and ginger up front with a nice bit of spice that heats things up a little without one thinking "oh yeah, it's a Xmas beer". It's a ale for any occasion if you like! As the brew warms the ginger becomes more pronounced and lingers.
Interesting. Temperture plays a big part with this one.
