16 oz can from Tavour my daughter got me. Nose is big banana, chocolate, vanilla, and dairy. Black with a tiny layer of tan bubbles. Flavor is chocolate banana cream pie, just as advertised.

A can shared in the Dungeon, thanks to Mustapohjala. Murky purple, small pinkish head. Aroma is intense overwhelming banana candy and peanut butter with sugar. Nutty, sugary chocolate, biscuit, lacquer, too sweet. Medium body, moderate carbonation, light finish. Artificial.

Really weird, it's basically apple sauce/compota except pumpkin, except I've never eaten pumpkin sauce with chunks and all, it does taste great though! Consistency weirds me out but I guess bonus points for not being a nutmeg bomb like most pumpkin ales.

Pours massively thick, chunky. Hazy yellow, off-white head. Big banana smell, some coconut somehow, plenty pineapple. Thick and chunky mouthfeel, almost spoonworthy. Tastes like so much banana puree, mixed with pineapple, and a light sourness. Damn tasty.

Thick mango juice, borderline pulpy. Fruity, a bit sweet, hoppy. Ripe mango, citrus, a bit sour, not tart. Very nice, if you like mango. I do.

That’s straight up lemon meringue, great balance of tart and sweet with a great vanilla finish. Thanks for the tip on this one Matt L.

Can ordered from Suds & Soda, Derby. Aroma has prominent vanilla over earthy piney citrus. Hazy orange. Frothy foamy white head soon fades. Juicy... Full on orange juice with a big sweet vanilla streak. Light-medium sourness. A quiet hoppy buzz. Medium bodied. Slick. Verging on creamy. Flat carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. So in my previous rating I complained about but this is unashamedly juicy with added vanilla. Hits the spot.

Tight foamy white head stayed on a thick hazy vivid golden coloured body. Vanilla & sweet citrus aroma. Medium to full bodied, smooth, creamy & soft with a tingle on the back. Vanilla, orange, cereal & biscuit tastes with a sour citrus finish - but not too sour. Finally - A sour I enjoy!
