473 ml can, at Cardinal, Stavanger. ABV is 9.1%. Slightly hazy golden colour, small white head. Rich aroma of malts and orange marmalade. Rich flavour too, again distinct malts and notes of bitter orange marmalade, but also distinct piney / resinous and spicy hops. Tastes like a hybrid between a Belgian triple and an IPA.

440 ml can, as Salikatt Greenhouse West Coast IPA, from Vinmonopolet Sandnes Kvadrat. ABV is 6.5%. Nearly clear golden to orange colour, moderate white head. Aroma of oranges and grapefruit, hints of pine. The flavour has a distinct piney / resinous and grapefruity bitterness from start to finish, also hints of oranges, on a background of decent malts, without being too sweet. A decent West Coast IPA.

On tap at Cardinal, Stavanger. Hazy yellow colour, moderate white head. Pleasant aroma of pine, grapefruit and tropical fruits, a faint hint of tomcat, but not disturbing. Equally pleasant and refreshing flavour, notes of pine needles, citrus and tropical fruits, not too sweet. Moderate bitterness. Another good beer from Polly's Brew.

The flavour is not too sweet, nor very sour, but has again notes of lemon zest and lemonade, with some malts in the background. Low bitterness. Dull.

440 ml can, as Salikatt Fast Break New England Double IPA, from Vinmonopolet Sandnes Kvadrat. ABV is 8.0%. Hazy pale yellow colour, moderate white head. Aroma of pine needles, sprucetips and grapefruit. Fizzy mouthfeel. Flavour like the aroma, but the bitterness is quite moderate. Some sweet citrus too. Another good beer from Salikatt, but not their very best.

500 ml can, from Coop Extra Prestemarka, Tau. ABV is 4.3%. Nearly clear pale golden colour, small white head. Aroma of artificial "passionfruit" esters, also hints of artificial peach and mango. Thin body. The flavour is not extremely sweet, but is dominated by said artificial fruit esters. Very moderate bittering hops in the finish. A beer to forget.

Shared can at Mandag i Annen, Cardinal. ABV is 10%. Dark brown to mahogany colour, beige head. Moderately warming mouthfeel. Aroma and flavour of malts, "spicy" Belgian ale yeast, brown kandij sugar syrup and mildly spicy / herbal hops. A very good quadrupel.

Shared can at Mandag i Annen. ABV is 6.9%. Mahogany colour, small head. Both aroma and flavour have a good malt character, but there are also some unwanted hints of lacquer. Too high fermentation temperature? Low bitterness, as expected from the style.
