Created to celebrate 300 years of brewing in Belhaven. Sweet pale malt from Scottish barley is the base for this hoppy Pale Ale. Classic herbal hop from Challenger and grapefruit citrus from Cascade is boosted with generous dry hopping in Fermenter with Galaxy and Centennial for fragrant floral and citrus notes and Mandarina Bavaria for yet more grapefruit flavour and a hint of orange. A zingy and refreshing Pale Ale with sweet malt, fragrant and fruity hop and a good bitter finish.

Draft. An amber beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma has notes of malt, flowers, and perfume. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, caramel, flowers, and perfume, leading to a lightly bitter finish.

On tap at Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. Orange colour, very little carbonation. Aroma and flavour of earthy English hops. This is a classical British pale ale / bitter in my book, nothing \"perfectly modern\" about it. A bit more carbonation would help. Quite drinkable though.

Kveldens andre fatøl på Mi2 Cardinal, og etter Track Oliana ble dette en real nedtur. Oransjegylden og så å si uten skum. Flat munnfølelse, smådau smak og lite aroma. Noe karamell, barskog og milde urter. Skjønner ikke at dette skal være en blonde/golden ale, den går tydelig i retning av en engelsk bitter, dog uten den drikkegleden som vanligvis følger med.

On tap at Cardinal, Stavanger. Pours clear light amber with little head. Aroma of caramel, piny and earthy notes with some fruity notes. Tastes slightly bitter with some sweetness. Thin bodied, very low carbonation. One of the best balanced beers - in all aspects.
