My grading scale

It is subjective, but I think you'll be able to understand where I'm coming from:

1-3 "Horrible" : NEVER BUY THIS!!!! (Or buy it just to see what crappy beer tastes like.)

4-5 "Ok" : These beers need a little work. Usually from a company known for another type of brew.

6-7 "Good": It's ok, for now.

8-9 "Great" : Try this at least once, you'll be happy you did :D

10!!!!! "Godly" = This is attainable, but the most subjective of all grades. If I ever give a beer a 10 it'll be because it blows your mind.

Magic Hat Odd Notion Series Summer '10

So this was a whim buy, I actually didn't even look at the name or anything, just the brand and I grabbed it.  Great luck, since this is a special brew and won't come around again.  Says it's brewed 3/4 ale w/ ginger.


Look/Pour/Smell - Yellow orange, hazy.  You can smell ginger no problem.  The pours easy, light carbonation.

Taste - The ginger is amazing.  The malt is browned, and so it helps to manage the strong ginger taste.  It's a really deep taste.  Honey and brown sugar are other thoughts that come to mind.

Rating - 8
It's so unique I can't help but give it a great rating.  It's only my fortune to buy this, so I hope you don't miss it.
