Feb 23, 2008 750ml bottle from waitrose. canyfloss bananas pepper and alcohol. imagine all of this in a glass with a frothy head on top and voila! you got it. not bad even if it is a bit too strong for it’s own good.

Feb 14, 2008 Bottle 0.75 l. Hazy golden with firm head. Sweet fruity nose. Fruity, malty and a bit acidic flavor. Vanilla and cream maybe, yeast. Somewhat mixture of a lager and a belgian tripel. Interesting and surprisingly good food companion. Smooth and pleasant mouthfeel. Gets a bit boozy when warm.

Feb 11, 2008 Rule #1, if you are going to call your beer "King Cobra," make sure there is not a ghetto malt liquor that goes by the same name. Given that, this is not nearly that bad. Pours clear gold with lots of bubbles and a big white head. Grassy, floral, spun-sugar aroma. Corn syrup, grassy hops, and black pepper in the taste. Some sugary banana throughout. Not champagne, but decent.

Jan 22, 2008 Canned. Pale golden, brief head. Fruity nose. Sweet and thick. Fruit syrup and peppery alcohol is there. medium bodied with little substance and no bitterness. Drinkable for it’s size - but that’s about it.

Jan 7, 2008 375ml bottle. Slightly hazy gold, with a small white head. Sweet, floral aroma. Very sweet taste but the alcohol is well hidden. Smooth palate but could do with some dryness. Nice bottle though.

Jan 3, 2008 Hazy pale yelow colour with lively firm white head. Slight grassy hop aroma. Mild grassy tatse that hides the alcohol.
Girlfriend would prefer Heinkein over this.

Jan 1, 2008 750 ml bottle, shared by DarkElf. Pours clear golden color with a large white foamy head. Somewhat grainy malts, with hints of belgian yeast character and floral notes. Sweet grainy malts in the flavor, a hint of lager soapiness, more of the slight belgian yeastiness lending a bit of bread and spice in the finish along with light floral hoppiness. Medium body, smooth and easy carbonation. Definitely interesting.

Dec 27, 2007 Updated: Jan 28, 2008Bottle. Pours a nice golden color with a high champagne-like head. Aroma is banana, malt, and slight slight hop. Taste is banana up front, with corn, earthy, and hop notes as well. Finishes very clean, almost like a more effervescent Stella. I was also surprised at the low ratings for this beer. It isn’t fantastic, but it’s drinkable and smooth.
