Magic Hat G-Thing

From Magic Hat Brewing – G-Thing! is a Ginger Spice Ale led by a fresh ginger zing that’s followed by a bready malt backbone. Its subtle roasty notes and mild hop bitterness slowly give way to a serene cinnamon spiciness as the malt tones melt away.

Magic Hat Brewing – Magic Hat G-Thing – 12 oz. bottle poured into a goblet. 5.7% abv.

Appearance:  Pours dark brown with no head.

Aroma:  Mild gingerbread and dark roast. Grain.

Taste: Ginger root, a touch of curry, cola.

Mouthfeel:  Thin side of medium bodied. Modest carbonation. Points awarded for a great name/label.

Overall:  This beer deserved more body to go along with the sweet holiday spice profile. Over all, it didn’t deliver the goods like most holiday ales do.
