330 ml can, at Cardinal, Stavanger. ABV is 0.5%. Slightly hazy and very pale golden colour, small and shortlived white head. Lovely aroma of citrus and tropical fruits. Thin mouthfeel as expected. Crisp and refreshing flavour, citrus notes dominate. Not bad at all.

On tap at Cardinal (ground floor only), Stavanger. ABV is 8%. Fikk smakt den nå. Vel, den smaker ikke vondt, langt derifra. En tjuktflytende sak med rødlig-lilla farge. Duft og smak som en søt og fruktdominert drink. Men ØL? Vel, hvis man strekker begrepene langt nok ... Men hovedmålgruppen er nok dem som liker å gå amok i iskremdisken, samt i smågodthyllene på Europris.

On tap at Cardinal, Stavanger. Slightly hazy golden colour, large to moderate white head. Aroma and flavour of citric hops (no surprise), but this hop combination also gives a "spicy" hop character that blends very well with the citrus notes. Refreshing and eminently drinkable.

750 ml green bottle, Cardinal’s Christmas beer tasting. ABV is 7.3%. Brown colour, large beige head. Lovely malty aroma, with typical notes of Belgian ale yeast, brown kandij sugar, caramel, dark dried fruits and mild spices. The flavour is rich and malty, with the same elements as the aroma, and moderate hops in the finish. Very good.

440 ml can, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 6.5%. Hazy pale yellow colour, moderate white head. Distinct aroma of passionfruit, flowers, coconut, vanilla, lychee and ripe peaches. The flavour is not quite as sweet as the aroma made me fear, but has the said elements, also moderate bittering hops.

330 ml bottle, as Dubuisson Fram'Bush, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. . ABV is 8.5%. Deep red colour, huge pink head. Intense aroma of ripe raspberries, as expected. The flavour is medium sweet with loads of raspberries, again as expected, but there is also a fairly distinct hop bitterness in the finish, which keeps the beer from falling in the "sweet & cloying" category. Well worth sampling.
