Bottle. Unclear pale yellow color with a small, fizzy, fair lacing, fully diminishing, white to off-white head. Aroma is moderate foam-banana, (very syntetic banana) light yeasty. Flavor is moderate to heavy sweet with a average duration. (Syntetic foam banana sweetnes). Body is medium, texture is syrupy, carbonation is lively. (190907)

Bottled. A light golden beer with some sediment floating around under a disappearing white head. The aroma is sweet with notes of banana as well as a light touch of wheat. The flavor is very sweet - too sweet for my liking - making it almost artificial in flavor, with strong notes of banana, leading to a dry wheaty finish. Too sweet and too much banana.

(Bottle 33 cl) Slightly hazy, pale yellow with a bubbly, pop-like head that dissipates in no time. Intense, artificial banana aroma. Light body, very heavily carbonated and then also intense, chemical and sugary banana flavours. No bitterness. Quite horrible. The label mentions something called "Milkbase" - whatever that’s supposed to mean. 160907

33 cL bottle. Pours cloudy and yellow with a fizzy white head. Dry banana fruity aroma. Sweet and fruity banana flavoured. Slight cloying finish. Drinkable, I had expected much worse.

Bottled (from beerplanet.eu). Hazy yellow colour, small white head. Aroma is stomach acids, sweet artificial banana along with some sweet artificial sweeteners as well. Flavour is puke, banana, stomach acids and extremely unpleasant. Appearance gives this beer a few points of pity, as it feels wrong to give this a 1 in apprearance.

Bottled. Muddy pale yellow. Aroma of severely overripe bananan and ammonium. Fizzy and ludicrously sweet with plenty of highly unpleasant artificia sweetener and a very powerful nd unexpected flavour of goat cheese. It’s not really mild goat cheese ever, but the most rustic musky sweaty hardcore chevre you’ve ever tasted. Completely bizarre beer. I like goat cheese, but this is ridiculous.

Bottle at home. Muddy pale yellow coloured with a medium sized white head. Very sweet aroma of bananas, overriped bananas and wheat with notes of citrus. Extremely sweet flavour of overriped bananas. Sweet finish. Undrinkable.

Bottle, 4.9%. Banana aroma, a little wheaty, not so pleasant. The appearance is like a mix of old sperm and milk, however that might look. Unstable white head. Very sweet flavour. Some banana in the aftertaste, seems artificial. Has some old plastic and vomit as well. Very vile, actually. Perhaps it IS what it looks like?

Pale peach coloured with medium white head. Sweet yeasty aroma with banana notes. Very sweet flavor with loads of banana and bubblegum notes. Ends sweet.

(330ml bottle, BB June 11) Pours a cloudy pale yellow body with a small white head. Aroma of banana laffy taffy, baby powder, and wheat. Flavor of liquid banana laffy taffy and light wheat.
