Merged rating from tap pour at The Grill Next Door and can pour from Julio's Liquors. Appearance is lightly hazy bright yellow with fair sparkle, finger-width white foamy head with decent retention and trace lacing. Aroma is strong citrus, light pine. Taste is strong citrus, milder grapefruit, pine and musky herb, late fruit. Palate is light-to-medium bodied with smooth, thin texture, soft-to-average carbonation, lightly spicy, and finish as taste with lingering bitterness. Overall, strong all around with tap pour stronger grapefruit and pine in the mix for aroma and taste than can.

Juleavslutning på Mi2 Cardinal des-18: etter Jåttå-presentasjonen fortsetter å seremonimester Melberg med å bære frem det ene fatølet etter det andre, nå er vi så avgjort i komfortsonens hovedmanesje! Uklar korngylden med flott skum som varer. Karameller, mild furunål, litt mynte/eukalyptus, mango og tørkede frukter. Solid og samtidig saftig maltkropp med et delikat krydderinnslag og dejlig bitterhed i afslutningen. Godt at man kan forsyne seg på nytt.

On tap at Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. Cloudy golden colour, large white head. Intense and complex hop aroma: fruity, piney, herbal and spicy notes. Also hints of honey and newmown grass. Distinctly hoppy and resinous flavour too, with some complexity, still fairly well balanced.
