I'd like to make a winter ale that is a little lighter and lower alcohol than many christmas ales and similar spiced beers. My thought was to take an IPA recipe and add ginger to the batch. I'm not sure how this is going to turn out, and if you've made something like this before, I'd appreciate the feedback.
