Honey, biscuit, fruit cake, apricot jam, dried orange peel, lychee. Sweet apricot & lychee, bittersweet orange peel, honey. Bitter floral hops, ripe tropical fruits. Medium to full body, oily texture. Quite enjoyable, on the sweet side, lacks a bit of hop & malt complexity.

Lots of lavender, rose petals, rosemary, mandarin zest, herbed cheese. Sour mandarin, rhubarb, gooseberry, lots of herbal lavender, bit bitter at that. Woody & herbal finish, bit tannic, soapy. Unusual, wouldn't seek it out again per se but it's quite good.

Speculoos, tobacco, peat, tea leaves, vanilla, dried fig. Sweet fig, banana, smoked tea (reminiscent of Lapsang souchong), herbs, peat. Herbal hops, vanilla & peat, bit spicy, phenolic. Almost full-bodied. Weird indeed, but actually quite enjoyable.
