Dark golden colour, small white head. Fruity, orange peel aroma. Light-bodied. Flavour has also orange peels, some tropical fruits, gummy bears. This is really odd for its ABV - almost watery, not much resiny and piney as expected from West Coast IPA. Long way from Jaipur ...

From tap @ Pikkulintu Ruttopuisto. Poured unclear golden in color. Dried fruity aroma, slightly tired hop feeling over it. Meadowy, sweetish flavors with light bitterness. Medium bodied.

Flavour is composed of semi sweet, rustic grains, biscuit, sticky pine, silage, pine. Firm bitterness. Palate is semi sweet, oily hop, highish carbonation. Nice English yeast component to this one.

Nytt år, vi er samlet til sesongstart på Mi2 Cardinal (jan-20), og snart er der ikke være et promillefritt blodomløp i sikte! Seremonimester Melberg bringer frem dagens andre øl, også denne fra fat. Nesten helt klar, lys gylden med fint skum. Grapefrukt, furunål, tropiske frukter - en saftig og svært lettdrikkelig IPA med en god dose mersmak. Hint av banan?

On tap at Cardinal, Stavanger. Pours hazy golden with off-white head. Aroma of tropical fruits, pine needles. Tastes slightly bitter with quite some sweetness. Medium bodied, bitter finish. Good to have a traditional IPA in these NEIPA days.

On tap at The Colmore, pours a hazy golden with a medium beige head. Aroma brings out metallic notes, piney hops, and biscuity malt - lots of metallic notes. Flavour is along the same lines, with lots of metallic notes, earthy piney hops, and crisp biscuity malt. Metallic and sharp. Difficult one.
