Notater fra årets siste Mi2 på Cardinal (des-19), der vi startet med seks gode fatøl. Det var lenge siden det siste edru blodomløp var ute av veien, så stemingen var helt upåklagelig da seremonimester Melberg bar inn kveldens første flaskeøl. Klar dyprød mahogny med fint skum som varer. Aromatisk og saftig så det holder. Røde bær, gule epler, svisker, dadler og lynghonning. Mild bitterhet. Rund, fyldig og sjarmerende.

Bottle. A chestnut colored beer, hazy, with a finger thick beige head. Chocolate, roasted malts, caramel and dark dried fruits in the aroma. Hints of bread. It's full bodied and smooth, nicely carbonated and lightly warming, with some bitterness dealing with the sweetness. Caramel, chocolate, oat biscuits, roasted malts and some treacle in the flavor. Lasting finish. Sure a fine one, perhaps a bit fresh though. 191130

500 ml bottle, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 7.4%. Mahogany colour, moderate off-white to beige head. Lovely aroma of malts, ripe red fruits and dark berries, raisins and sultanas, fruitcake and plum pudding. Rich and malty flavour with the same elements as the aroma, moderate earthy and fruity hops. An excellent and classical English strong ale.

Bottle from Vinmonopolet. Clear, deep amber to dark ruby red body with a small beige head. Aroma has dark malt, caramel and dry fruit. Flavor is sweet, dark malt, caramel, rye bread and dry fruit, not much bitterness. Fine body and smooth, sweet aftertaste. It feels a bit like something in the crossing between a strong stout, British brown ale and a barley wine. Nothing to challenging here but it’s well made and tasty.

Not bad. Strong and fruity

Drukket på Lillehøgda. Mørk mahognybrun. Skum som blir raskt borte. Utmerket eikearoma. Sherryaktig. Oljeaktig munnfølelse. Smaken innholdsrik. Tre-/sherrypreget forsterkes og preges etterhvert av nøtter & karamell. Lett tørr bitter avslutning.

Bottled. Deep dark brown color. Hint of salt in the aroma. Malt, salt and raisin in the flavor. Just a bit of flowery hops. Well balanced strong ale.
