Reviewed from notes.
The appearance was a milky brown color with a cap of a little white foamy head. Slides off into oblivion, no lace.
The aroma had some caramel/toffee malts, some banana, light earthiness, somewhat grassy tones. Ample herbal qualities at the end.
The flavor leaned towards a malty and herbal sweet carrying all of the previously mentioned aromas in fairly nice. Aftertaste was semi-smooth sweet banana and herbal. Finish was wet sweet malts.
The feel was roughly medium bodied, perhaps just a tad under. ABV felt as projected, though, makes me feel like I was drinking water, but there’s some beer qualities here.
Overall, weird beer with the banana flavoring, wasn’t sure if that was intentional or not. Makes for a great session if one can let the banana agree with them for this style.

Draft. Nearly clear brown in color hop present in the aroma. Cascade or centennial hops throughout the sip. Hop heads would like this one. Not real bitter so even a non-hoppy person can still enjoy.
