Different than expected. The honey is very subtle. It's mainly fruity, but only slightly sweet. Red plum skins, Cheongsu grape skins, sour cherry. I didn't like it at first, but it grew on me.

50cl sample @ Beer Ambleside. Pours translucent pale gold. Lovely enticing blend, defined yet gentle honey sweetness with ostensible bourbon-like vanilla and brioche. Nice.
