Banana, PB and ‘Facon’ dark brown porter. As Facon impersonates Bacon, so this beer impersonates an alleged Kingly culinary classic. Up front banana and peanut in this sweet porter is followed by delicate smokiness in the aftertaste.

440ml bottle from Brass Castle. Pours dark brown in colour with a biege foam head leavingb lacing and aroma of peanut butter, banana, biscuity. Taste is sweetish, malty, biscuit, chocolate, with banana and peanut notes, and some earthy bitterness. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, dry finish with lingering banana & peanut. Quite drinkable.

Can from Appellation Wines. Appearance - deep brown to black and opaque. Close to tan head. Nose - bit peanut and hazelnut note which then seems to be engulfed with the sweet banana. Not getting anything that resembles bacon. Taste - more sweet banana and loads of nuts again. Palate - creamy texture sweet middle and finish. Overall - good, if a little sweet for my taste.
