Brewer Patriot Collection - Traditional Ginger Honey Ale
0709/06- Purchased as part of a SE Patriot 4-pk at Bevmo in San Mateo, CA. Presentation- 12oz bottle, best by date on the package and the bottle. Poured into my Sebastopol Brewing pint glass. Appearance- Hazy and a bit cloudy peach in color. About a 1/4 inch head, which fades fairly quickly. Leaves behind a touch of watery looking lace. Smell- Damn, this is macro-esque. Corny, a bit sweet plus a few spices maybe. Taste- Short and to the point. Not good. Tastes like Bud with touches of ginger and honey added. Also tastes a bit tea-like. Mouthfeel- Feels OK, good carbonation level, just bad taste and the aftertaste isn't much better. Drinkability- One of my few drain pours. Made it about half the way through until I discovered it was just like drinking BMC.
