Bottle, at Brasserie Posten. 2018 vintage. An unclear brown beer with a reddish tint. A small beige head forms on top. The aroma has quite a lot of dried fruits, with caramel, some brown sugar, hints of alcohol and a touch of grassy, piney hops. It's full bodied, sweet, quite warming and nicely carbonated, still smooth on the palate, with a light bitterness bringing some balance to the accounts. Caramel, dried fruits and some roasted malts have company of brown sugar, chocolate and a touch of coffee in the flavor. Alcohol too. Lasting finish. A very pleasant and clean quad that would probably benefit from some cellaring. 190814

Dark amber pour with a fine head. Ok lacing. Pleasant intensity in the aroma. Balanced sweetness for a beer like this. Oily texture. Dried fruits, toffee, nutty and mild vinous. Fine ok evening sipper.

Fra flaske (kveldens siste) på Mi2, Cardinal sep-17: klar rødlig mahogny med flott skum som varer. Røde bær i lange baner, marsipan, fiken og andre tørkede frukter kompletterer bildet. Mørke karameller. Vinøs og søt med noe avdempet bitterhet. En god avslutning på en fin kveld i lag med gode venner.
