ClubGonzo (1950) - Bergen, NORWAY - APR 6, 2012
On tap @ Henrik, Bergen. The Green Cat curls up in my glass in the shape of a hazy darkly honey-hued beer, crowned with a small white head. Nose is distinct cat pee, grass, herbs and hints of melon. Taste is syrupy catty grass tones, grapefruit, hints of herbs and something else that strangely feels like cotton on my tongue, yet escaping identification. Full body. A bit strange, but OK.

Palme (1437) - Bergen, NORWAY - MAR 20, 2012
On tap @ Henrik. This one pours a cloudy amber-ish body with a small creamy just off-white head. Aroma has a mild fruity touch with tones of sweet malts and hoppy citrus. It’s average carbonated and has a slick to oily quite nice texture. Good flavors. It’s really well balanced the flavors on this one. Some fruity tones and I also get some caramel-strawberry tones. Unfortunately it get’s kinda astringent towards the finish and definitely mouthdrying in the aftertaste. Other than that, this was one really tasty and hoppy cat. Mjaww 15.03.2012

Foffern (272) - Bergen, NORWAY - MAR 18, 2012
On tap at Henriks. Looks deep amber with a medium off-white head. The aroma is hoppy with notes of orange and citrus. Interesting flavours of berries, pine, grapefruit and something that reminds me of diesel fuel and some sweat. Slick mouthfeel and medium+ bitterness. Soft carbonation. A really one of a kind ale.

Frovigalning (1456) - Örebro, SWEDEN - MAR 17, 2012
On tap at Bishops Arms in Örebro. Smell of fruity hops, tropical fruits. Grassy and fruity hops in the taste, also some dill, grapefruit and citrus. The dill disturbs but besides that an easy to drink beer.

Christian (8548) - Odense, DENMARK - MAR 7, 2012
On tap at Christian Firtal. Hazy red amber with a fluffy and lasting off-white head. Big fruity hop aroma, with kiwi, black currant, orange peel, and a bit of minerally white wine. Sweetish, very fruity and complex flavour. Very bitter with some pine and grapefruit hoppiness. Full malty body despite the strength. Great balance, but obviously for hop lovers
