Big offwhite shiny lasting head with some really big bubbles. Hazy dark yellow body. Harmonic medicinal/herbal hoppy aroma with thin mealy malty notes. Dry golden malty taste with herbal hop notes. Dry resiny aftertaste. Nice, uncomplicated session beer. (0.5l bottle at Cardinal, Stavanger.)

Small offwhite coarse head quickly disappears. Deep chestnut brown body. Sugary caramel and dried fruit notes aroma, very strong, with chocolate and orange notes. Lots of aroma, but there’s something about the orange/chocolate mix that doesn’t appeal to me. Sweet, complex taste of port, dried fruit, caramel, and roasty malts. Dry chocolatey, smoky aftertaste with tobaccoish notes. Taste is also powerful, and sharpish, but nice. A good beer, and a bit different. (0.5l bottle at Cardinal, Stavanger.)

500ml bottle from Centra, Oslo. Pours a creamy, dense foam with moderate duration and great lacing. The body is getting cloudy with the last pour, otherwise clear, amber in colour. Very nice appearance, indeed. Light malty sweetness lies at the heart of the aroma. The flavour brings more soft malts, some yeast and hops with smooth bitterness on the swallow. Quite refreshing, classic English bitter (Oslo, 20.08.2007).
