Fra fat på Mi2 Cardinal april-17: klar og vakker rødlig rav, ok skum. Noe urteaktig aroma (pors?) sammen med kirsebær, honning og marsipan. Deilig, dessertpreget smak, minner om hjemmelaget kirsebærsyltetøy med noen kirsebærsteiner. Allikevvel blir det ikke for søtt, syrligheten fra bærene balanserer det hele påp en utmerket måte. En super mjød.

On tap at Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. Pours red with a slight carbonation and a thin white head. Dryish aroma of cherries and cherry kernels, also some honey, but less pronounced than expected. A discrete carbonation in the mouth. Moderately sweet and fruity flavour with notes of cherries and honey.

Bottle. Pours unclear red, with almost no head. Aroma is earthy, with honey, heather and blueberries. Thin body, with very soft carbonation. Flavour is is sweet, with berries and fruit. Not far from a somewhat earthy, and slightly fermented fruit juice. I’d rather have the unfermented Lerum version, to be honest.

21.12.2016, 0,25l bottle shared with Palme @ Apollon:
Small bubbly mediumlasting head, clean golden color (more amber hazy at the bottom of the bottle). Aroma is slightly sweet spiced, like a mix of Cointreau and aquavit with spices; orange liquor, minerals, cloves, cardamom, grass, honey, cinnamon, pine needles, flowers, perfume. Taste is sweet spiced, loaded with fresh cinnamon bark, minerals, honey, raisins, cardamom, orange liquor, cloves, alcohol. Light (almost a little watery) mouthfeel with a nice warming boozy touch. Nice, would be perfect with dessert on Christmas eve, or as a dessert on its own.

0.25l bottle from #2, shared with Inbreak @Apollon. This one pours more or less a clear deeper golden colored body. Perhaps a little hint of something blurry and on the top a small bubbly quickly sidesticking off-white top. Like the upspiced nose. Loaded with gingerbread, dried orange peel and nutmeg, traces of cinnamon in the back. A little bit of allspice also here. Really mood setting this and nice to smell at this cookie dough inspired aroma. Tastes quite nice also. Much more cinnamon in the taste. Cinnamon and dried orange peel. Surprisingly light in the mouth for a twelve percenter and there's not much bubbles here. Gingerbread and mild allspice. Could definitely see myself having this again - perhaps as a after Christmas dinner sipper. Really nice! 21.12.2016

Small bubbly mediumlasting head, light amber slightly hazy color. Aroma is slightly sweet mineraly with a slightly sake-like boozy touch, mineraly honey, paper, booze, flowers, grain, grass, caramel, bark. Taste is slightly dry mineraly with much of the same sake-like boozyness, mineraly honey, booze, paper, flowers, caramel, hay, grass. Even though there is some level of boozyness in the mouthfeel, the mouthfeel still feels kind of watery. Fair enough.
