Amberfarvet klar med to fingre høyt beige skum. Lukter moden fersken, plommer og tung fudge. Middels fylde. Søtlig smak, noe kandis, sydhavsfrukt og en lett kort bitterhet mot slutten.

Fra flaske på Mi2, Cardinal (Asko Rogaland ølmesse): klar gylden, ok skum. Noe ufrisk urtearoma og -smak. Jordaktig, uinteressant. Bør antakelig kanskje igjen.

Small sample from bottle at ASKO-messe. Golden colour, white head. Very moderate aroma of fruity hops. The hops are more distinct in the flavour, fruity notes first, ends in a sharpish, very bitter and medicinal aftertaste.

NYE Extravaganza 2. 500ml bottle into shaker. Gusher! Scent of orange peel and lavender. Hazy golden beer with thin film on top. Crisp flat mouthfeel leading to a dry grainy bitter finish, a little fruit present. As APA’s go, quite mellow. Good quaffer.

A slightly orange beer, a head is small and almost white. Aroma has biscuits, some caramell, citrusfruits and wood. Taste has wood and biscuits, the bitterness is quite mild but still it’s drying enough the mouth. Quite light bodied, easy to drink. Wooden vision, nevertheless, quite fresh.

Pours light and pale straw., bit of white foam. Aroma is greasy, refreshing, bit of malts shining through from beneath. Tastes also quite light and easygoing, malt body supporting it’s hop flavours. Simple and sessionable if anything. Not bad.

Bottle from Braedon at home. Hazy amber orange pour. Aroma is predominantly malt, some spice, some slight resin hops. Taste is surprisingly malty but also with crisp clean hoppy bitterness. Hope are a bit floral but mostly just crisp. Not bad for an APA but not much going on.
