At my local beerfest two months ago one of the local shops was pouring
Crabbies Ginger Beer .
It is crisp, light and really good - assuming you like ginger.
If you've ever had Reed's or Bundaberg, you'll like this stuff. The difference is, this stuff is alcoholic
It's a nice change of pace from the regular beer collection.

I was more into Carolyn Jones (Morticia Addams of the Addams Family) then the island girls.

OT, I've had Crabbie's. Good stuff. Good bottles too, iirc, but the labels are tough!

I always liked Mary-Ann more so than Ginger...seemed that Mary-Ann would have been a better partner than the other. But what do I Know.
The Nong Brewery defines "
Fermentation " as: Making "Rot" a Good Thing

I agree that the bottles are kind of cool. I've found that it takes a 2 or 3 day soak in Starsan at 2X strength to get all the glue off. And even then it requires some scrubbing.
