Bottled, no date available but bought a month ago in the local Mitra, large sample. Slight hazy orange color, medium frothy off-white head, some debris. Aroma has some cookie and biscuit maltiness, hint of garlic, grapefruit, bit spicy. Bit bitter, bit spicy, bit dry. Bit sharpish alcohol in the palate. I have the feeling this bottle was past its peak. Currently it doesn’t taste like an IPA, but then again Emelisse doesn’t say it’s an IPA either.

Fra fat på Cardinaltreff juni-13: "lukter som min gamle bestemor" sa ølnerden ved siden av meg.Ikke helt enig, men den smaker definitivt bedre og søtere enn aromaen gir bud om (hadde forventet en mer brettlignende smak). Cascade er hovedhumlen, men de må ha brukt gammel humle. Ganske rund ettersmak.

Amber and unclear. Sour aroma of blue cheese with a hint of brett. Taste is better with some sweet orange and lime marmelades. Bitterness is evident. Interesting. Gets progressively better from aroma to after taste.

On tap at Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. Hazy golden to orange colour, moderate white head. Moderate but nice aroma of fruity / citrussy hops. Medium dry flavour, with moderate fruity and herbal hops. A decent summer ale, which belies its strength.

Draft. A golden beer with a yellowish head. The aroma has notes of hops, hay, and malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, straw, and hops, leading to a dry finish.

Bottle from beernavigator. Pours amber, clear, medium high head. Not very hoppy on the nose but as it warms up it grows. West coast, pine, red grape fruit, peach and mango. Swett caramell maltbody, pine, peach and mango. Little bitterness, clean flavours. Well made but not exceptional. A nit to sweet for my taste.

Bottle shared with Veitafan. Has a bit cloudy orange colour with a off-white head. Nice. Fruity and spicy aroma with blood orange and Belgian yeast. Light and nice. Fruity hops in the flavour along with tropical fruits and some sweet berries, and has a dry ending. Slick mouth feel, and has a medium bitterness. Fresh and good and balanced. Nice aroma. The taste is more like a pale ale.

Dark, golden blond colour. Quite a fruity, hoppy aroma. Flavour is of tropical fruits such as passion fruit and pink grapefruit. Sweet and sharp at first with light bitterness in the finish.

33 cl. bottle @ home, bought online @ Drankgigant. Hazy amber with a small dense off-white head. Sweet citrushop aroma with some pineable. Medium bitterness with a sweet note. Hopy aftertaste. Not the most hoppy IPA by close but nice enough.

33cl bottle picked up at the De Molen bottle shop pours with a clear copper body that exhibits golden hues and supports a light tan head of foam. The aroma is inviting and offers up sweet candy like citrus and mango, some caramel and an interesting hay to cereal graininess. The taste delivers caramel and sweet malts moving quickly into malt sweetened citrus. To midway it picks up a cereal grainy maltiness and a slight soap sensation. Overall this is a little sweet which might mean it isn’t perfectly fresh.
