500ml bottle bought at Gulating Ølutsalg, Trondheim. Bubbly, fawn-coloured head. A slight haze to a dark brown body. Crocheted lacing. Modest aroma of earthy malts and caramel, hints of dark fruits. Brown malty flavours including caramel and toffee, joined by moments of liquorice and citrus. Roasted bitter endnotes. Medium bodied. Well crafted and nice. (Hotel room, Trondheim 05.08.2017).

Fra flaske på Mi2 Cardinal mai-17: lett uklar gylden med flott skum. Litt skarp aroma med krydder og appelsin. I smaken finner jeg også furunål, litt tropiske frukter og gjær. Hveten kjenner jeg ikke noe til. Intetsigende saker.

Fra flaske på Mi2 Cardinal mai-17: uklar gylden med svært kort skum. Aroma av lys malt (mest i form av sur mesk), overmodne appelsiner og litt krydder. Det samme i den flate smaken. Dette var direkte usprekt, og steminingen rundt bordet ble direkte molefonken.

500 ml bottle, from the brewery. ABV is 4.5%. Hazy brown colour, small off-white head. Aroma of yeast, brown bread and brown malts. Malty (brown bread notes again) and slightly fruity flavour, medium dry, not bad, but not remarkable in any way.

500 ml bottle, from the brewery. ABV is 6.7%. Hazy and very pale straw colour, lots of floaties poured in the end. No head. Strong aroma of ginger and lime, also notes of other citrus fruits and peppers, and alcohol. Citrussy flavour, fairly sweet, again with lime and ginger up front, also pepper and chili. Only a hint of anise. I am not sure that this qualifies as a rateable beer, no sign of malts.

Strong aroma of citrussy hops, notes of tropical fruits too, also orange peel and coriander. Light bodied. Dry flavour with distinct citrussy hops and a bitter finish, again notes of orange peel and coriander, but lacks a malty backbone.
