750 ml swing top. Aroma is blackberry, honey, floral. Pours a still dark purple, looking like red wine. Taste is moderately to highly sweet, highly tart, with the blackberry slightly overpowering the honey. Some light to moderate tannic dryness. Delicious, as usual.

Bottle at Mikkeller Bangkok, pours a dirty dark brown. Aroma brings out lots of pithy blackberries and treacle honey. Flavour is rich, with pithy blackberries, moderate alcohol, and gentle wildflower honey. A little dirty, but the pithiness works. Excellent.
