Bottle. Very sweet overripe banana aroma with hint of sourness. Clear golden yellow with moderate head and effervescense. Super sweet banana mixed with sour musty flavor of a more traditional lambic. So cloying it almost beats maple syrup. Might make good snowcones or Hawaiian shave ice.

Bottle; Nose of banana and lite funk; hazy light amber, small offwhite head; flavor of sweet banana with a slight amount of funky tartness, but stiil too sweet like their others I’ve tried, maybe this is supposed to be a banana hefeweisen/lambic.

(Bottle, thanks to Marsiblursi) Sampled at a tasting night at Marsiblursi’s place. Clear golden color, small head. Strong artificial over ripe banana mixed with wine scent. Sugary acidic apple juice taste, with wine aftertaste. Watery palate, no bitterness.

(Bottle 25 cl) Pours a slightly hazy golden with a small, white head. Very distinct banana aroma. Thin-bodied with a very, very sweet banana flavour. The lambic sourness is only a vague memory in this beer. A soda pop much more than a beer. 150102

Lightly golden body under a low level head. Aroma of mustard and banana. Dried and ripe banana taste. Very sweet - in fact, too sweet (bottle sampled with Finn at The Fat Cat in Norwich 25.09.2006).
