From the brewer

Brewed to celebrate one of the red-headed founders of Maplewood Brewing Company, the Creepy Ginger is a Belgian-Style Golden Strong Ale brewed with a pilsner malt base and a healthy amount of spelt. A modest amount of organic ginger root is infused after fermentation to add subtle complexity to classic Belgian fruity and spicy flavors, resulting in a unique and refreshing Belgian-style ale.

Who's been drinking this

Tastes like a faintly spicy Belgian pale. The ginger shows up at the end as a kind of rooty bitterness, but I can't say it was as gingery as I wanted. Perfectly drinkable, though.
