Shared can at Mandag i Annen, Cardinal, Stavanger. Moderately hazy and deep golden colour, moderate white head. Aroma and flavour of decent malts and ditto herbal and earthy hops. Not bad.

Mi2 på Cardinal, og Luis er på besøk medbringende et knippe canadiske øl fra sitt emporium, de fleste er 0,473 bokser: lett uklar gylden med fint kniplingskum som varer. Floralt og lett krydret anslag som bringer tankene mer i retning av en IPA enn en bitter, men leskende er det uansett, og maltsmaken er god.

Oransjebrun med hvitt skum. Lukter malt karamell og humle. Smaker karamell, malt og noe krydderurter. Medium pluss med kullsyre. Kort.

Very slightly unfiltered, golden colour with a white head that stays quite long for the style, and nice lacing is left on the glass and brew. Straw malt base with a very fresh, herbal and mostly citrusy hop. The taste shows the citrus again, with a nice blend of juices and zest. Quite a nice, refreshing, citrusy milder ale, but not what I know of Bitter. Almost more like a nice NEPA than a Bitter - which I prefer anyways.

Can: Poured a clear brown color bitter with a medium size off-white head with light retention and minimal retention. Aroma of dry caramel malt notes with some light grainy cereal. Taste is mostly dominated by light dry caramel malt notes with light dry hoppy notes. Body is about average with good carbonation. OK bitter but nothing to write home about.
