330ml can from U and I - sludge brown body with no head and very little carbonation. Sweet aroma of banana with a massive booze nose. Sugary banana taste, almost chemical with a medicinal alcohol burn. But that sweetness, fucking hell, it is diabetes in a can. Not drainpour, but impossible to drink more than 10cl of it.

330ml can as part of a delivery from U & I Drinks. Consumed at home. Dark reddish gold, cloudy, no head. Smells of… oh Lord. Smells of plastic, caramel, overripe banana and garbage. Luckily it doesn’t taste as bad as it smells, although it isn’t great. Sweet with notes of bile, like vomited-up Bananas Foster. Syrupy, flat body. I cannot stress enough how not good this is but I was thrilled to get the privilege to try it.

Sample courtesy of Grumbo, cheers Graham! Dark amber colour, no head and aroma of toffee, banana, chocolate. Taste is sweetish, tangy, toffee, then sourish, with banana & chocolate hints, and warming booze. Medium bodied, low carbonation, drying warm boozy finish. OK

27/5/2022. Can from U & I Drinks, Hampshire. Pours clear dark amber bronze with a small bubbly off-white head. Aroma is boozy, ripe, banana, toffee, herb, marzipan, banana chocolate chip. Medium plus sweetness, light tangy bitterness and slightly sour. Moderate body, sticky watery, low carbonation. Dry finish. Bit of an oddity, improved on initial first impressions.
