6/10 β€” Appearance 4 Aroma 7 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 6
3/II/26 - 33cl can from Geers (Oostakker), shared @ home, BB: 20/VI/27 (WTF? Why would you tell people they can keep an IPA for that long?) (2026-95)

Pretty clear yellow blond beer, big creamy irregular white head, unstable, dissipates quickly, non adhesive. Aroma: very sweet impression, banana flavoured candy, bubble gum, some dried fruits, grape sugar, a bit weird. MF: soft carbon, medium body. Taste: pretty weird, sweet and fruity start, then a bit chemical, weird acidity, lots of ripe to overripe banana, very yeasty. Aftertaste: very bitter, resinous, banana peel, some bubble gum, a bit metallic, malty finish, chemical touch, meh.
