Bottle shared at work. Ruby pour, no head. Nose is honey, citruses and low tart notes. Taste is honey upfront, then there’re some tartish notes that go pretty well with the sweetness. The finish on the other hand has this grapefruity bitterness to it that’s just too much for me.

Bottle from Beermalade. Has a solid sweetness providing the counterpoint to an assertive sour fruit combo - the chokeberry and grapefruit proves to be an intriguing, tasty, refreshing combo. Works pretty well all put together. Could use some (more) honey character, but otherwise very good.

Winy color. Smells mostly like berries. The taste starts as sweet and tart fruity strong juice, almost no alcoholic side products. Some bitterness in the finish. Overwhelmingly fruity and sugary, no fermentation compexity. Very good.
