Cask at the Cleveland Arms - London. Pours clear brown with a thick, lasting creamy beige head. Lots of ripe orange in the nose, some pine, bready malts. Light to medium sweet flavor, plenty of pine, light caramel, brown bread, ripe orange. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Great condition. Subtle resins to finish, further dark ripe orange, bready malts, hints of pine. A decent beer made excellent by the Cleveland Arms. I shudder to think how much better this beer could have been if Arjen Robben hadn’t just scored the winner.

A copper beer with a big and beige head. Aroma of toffeeish malts, some fruits, wooden and lemon hoppyness. Nice and fresh aroma. Taste of toffeeish malts, still quite dry, hint of creamtoffee, wood, some lemon. Aftertaste is dry and wooden. Almost medium bodied, quite smooth carbonation, casual to drink. Nice beer with a enough of freshness, I have positive feeling from this beer.

Aroma: Malty with dusty, earthy hops.
Appearance: Ruby red body with a thick white head. Great lacing.
Taste: Hoppy zing. Slightly earthy taste. Very well balanced and moreish.
Palate: Medium body with an oily texture. Light carbonation fizz.
Overall: As always with Orkney beers, great balance.

Fra flaske på Cardinaltreff: en fruktig og lett bitter, og selv med beskjedne 4% er det en god øl som er verdt å kjøpe en flaske eller to av.

500mL bottle, split several ways, pours a clear / hazy copper with a small beige head. Aroma is quite coppery, with metallic notes, pale malts - not much else. Flavour of caramel, grainy English malt and a noticeable hop presence, but the hops are subjugated by the malts, despite the advertising as this being an intensely hoppy ale. Dominated most by the caramel and dry English malts. Quite decent.
