Bawls Ginger

This is the second flavor of Bawls to be featured on the blog. Follow the link here for the previous review on their root beer. Bawls is popular among gamers and programmers for its high levels of caffeine, one of the reasons I've only ever found it at computer equipment stores. 

While it has the typical aroma of a ginger ale, the taste is a bit unique. It has a touch more ginger spiciness than ginger ale, but much less than a ginger beer. What makes it interesting is a botanical punch of after taste that sort of drifts up the back of your mouth into you sinuses that makes you think you're smelling it rather than drinking it. It's not unpleasant but not exactly the flavor of ginger ale I grew up with. If you let it drift over the taste buds at the side of your tongue it presents and almost bubblegum-like flavor. It does pack plenty of carbonation which gives it a great tingle and aids in that botanical scent I mentioned before.
