250 ml bottle. Budapest, Hungary.
Golden colour with no head. Banana candy aroma with mild tea like notes and weak maltiness. Banana, citrus acidity, sourness and sugary sweetness in strange flavour. Gets pretty sweet.

jcweaver (367) - VA Beach, Virginia, USA - OCT 1, 2011
Bottle. Pours an unclear yellow with no head. Aroma/flavor of sweet, overripe bananas. No tartness at all usually associated with a lambic. Might be good if you REALLY like banana. But otherwise, horrible.

Copper body, white head. Very sweet and taste like the banana candies filled with the marshmellows. Crap.

Pouring at session one of Belgian Beer Fest in Boston. Pours a clear gold with a thin white head. Smells like banana candy. Smooth and sweet, lots of banana juice. So sweet and sticky, way too sweet, light acid. Tart, more banana on the finish. Interesting.

Dixonian (938) - Dallas, Texas, USA - AUG 24, 2011
Bottle. Very cloudy yellow with a small amount of white head. Aroma is lots of banana with some sugary sweetness - flavor is sweet as well, almost overly so. There are much better lambics out there but this isn’t terrible.

Bottle poured into glass a golden color with little white head and no lacing. Aromas of banana and yeast. Taste is sweet up front with a little of sour taste in the end.
