Very dark brown beer, residual tan head. Bubblegum and banana on the snout. Smooth semi dry palate, low carbonation. Amazing sweet banana, raspberry and fruit salad. Smooth dark malt in the background. Sweet sherbet coming through before the finish. A sweet dark beer. I like Felstar, they don’t always hit the mark but they are innovative.

Clear amber beer. Few bubbles for a head. Very low carbonation and dry palate. Sweetish malt with a little generic fruit sweetness. Finishes semi dry. No discernable hops. Flat. Not Felstar’s finest.
