Lightly golden body under a low level head. Aroma of mustard and banana. Dried and ripe banana taste. Very sweet - in fact, too sweet (bottle sampled with Finn at The Fat Cat in Norwich 25.09.2006).

Bottle at The Fat Cat Norwich 25 Sep 2006.Pale golden coloured. No head. Strange aroma of mustard. Tons of sugar and banana flavour all the way. Extremely sweet. A beer? No.

weird... first couple of sips are ok... other than that it is like drinking a melted candy banana... fizzy and tart for a sip... nasty banana syrup for the rest of the glass... yuk

Body is a dirty gold, no head. Aroma is old bananas with all the sugars, a bit of sourness and those candy bananas. Taste is tart banana, very acidic feeling. Not good, was a drain pour.

Flavor defintely banana, with some honey in it. looks like yellow pee, a bit cloudy with no head on it. it’s a bit way too sweet, but it also tastes and reminds me of a honey flavored robitussen cough drop.

(Bottle) Pours a cloudy yellow body with a small white head. Aroma of ripe and brown bananas and mustiness. Flavor of banana and sugar. This certainly is not my type of lambic, but for what it is, it is not all that bad.

This might be my first real guilty pleasure. The banana is artifical tasting and its over-sweet, but some how, I really dig this beer. Have one once in a while, dont drink too many, or it will make you sick
