2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
pale gold with no head. artificial sweet banana aroma. quite carbonated palate and a light body. banana, tropical fruit, and a grainy finish. intriguing but not that good.
2.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Golden color with a small head. Banana infused smell. Large bubbles in the head. Very sweet, hardly any tartness which is not right for a lambic.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottle (ZBF2008)
Sickly sweet, over-ripe banana aroma - you can tell it’s real bananas not just something from the chemical industry - some lambic tartness. Similar in taste. Surprising, but it works quite well.
4.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 19/20
UPDATED: JUL 11, 2008 Artificial banana candy aroma. Look of a ubiquitous pale yellow american clear lager. Very nice flavor, not objectionable in any way. Light and fruity. Easy to accept. Surprized to see they use real bananas in this stuff, it sure tastes more like banana syrup. Easy to gulp and easy to enjoy. Good as any other fru-fru fruity sweet lambic. Lovely sweet and bubbly. No bitter linger at all. Good fine lambic. Unique, with it’s bananas and all.
2.9 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20
These Chapeau so-called lambics are not really very good. Thus I feel slightly guilty admitting that I didn’t dislike this particular one. The fake banana milkshake aroma and sweet, sugary taste were almost redeemed by some sourness in the finish. Quite a nice golden colour.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle. Clear yellow pour with a nice light fluffy head. Aroma is banana and lots of it. Taste is sweet banana and yeast. Would have been better if it was alittle more sour. Maybe with some time. Thought it was much better than the percentile.
1.5 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 5/20
Bottle. Pours a pale nice golden colour with fast disappearing fizzy head. Aroma of quite artificial sweet banana candy (skumbananer). Sticky mouthfeel. The flavour is very sweet with a good sourness, artificial bananas, some plastic, yeast and malt. Very sweet banana finish with some sourness.
2.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
Bottle
decants with a decent hazed yelloe lambic..fair cap..good lace
Aroma; yup wet horse blsamket but the fruity notes of banana are synthetic and perfumey...spoils it
Tate is ok but the sugar and banana concentrate added kind of screw it...underneath is a decent lambic....pity the fruit flavoring wasn’t more real and less sweet.
