Chapeau Banana

Brewed by Brouwerij De Troch
Style: Lambic - Fruit
Ternat-Wambeek, Belgium

Banana Laffy Taffy in a botlle. I usually don’t like sweet beers but this was amazing. The flavor was great candied banana. The aroma was banan laffy taffy, i kept coming back and smelling the bottle after it was gone. Very interesting beer. Can’t wait to break open the bottle of plum!

A yellow-orange colour with a very small white head. The aroma is that of artificial bananas. A taste of bananas and a lot of sugar. A bit to sweet. (Bottle 25cl)

Beer buddy, Phil, calls from his travels to tell me what he finds and if I want some. This sounded interesting. Banana lambic. Well, I like bananas, so why not. This was pricy but could be worth it. Guess again. It poured a cloudy yellow with almost no head. The aroma was definitely bananas. Well, not so much real bananas as banana flavoring. The flavor was sweet and, surprisingly, had little banana to it. Some said it tasted like Mountain Dew. I didn’t get that, other than it was sweet. Shouldn’t be surprised. Chapeau has failed to impress.

Weird yellow and orange body. The aroma is bananas and sour apples. There is also an offensive wet dog character. The banana taste is rotten with some lemon meringue. There is also a little hay in the finish. Wow.

(Bottled) Slightly hazy pale honey color with a small white and foamy head. Sweet, slightly sour banana aroma. Very sweet banana flavor with an inch of sourness. Light to medium-bodied, ultra-sweet and sugary palate with low carbonation. A dessert drink for banana lovers.

really discusting it only taste banana at the first impression and after comes an old taste of somewhat rotten

Aroma:small banana candy.... Appearance:Yellow light head... Flavor:Acid like a geuze and very light banana candy flavor....

I did not expect much from this but it was definitely a very positive surprise. The flavor is strongly banana and there is very little head but it last. (Näyttää vähän Pommacilta.) Tickles nicely behind the upper teeth. Perhaps not a very traditional "beer taste" but I?ve already had a retry and I like it. The taste dos not have so much banana as the aroma did. A picnic beer. It says on the label that there is 20% banana in the beer.
