Lucky me found some of my favourite fruit beers at Tesco in Glasgow. A: Nothing special here! S: mmm nice banana tones T: banana , banana, banana AT: banana Has a very fresh taste and smell of bananas, you really have to appriciate fruite beers to fairly enjoy this one. Extra plus for the fairtrade certificate. Tried this beer the first time at the pub Delirium Cafe’ in Gothenburg 2005, note went bankrupt 2009 Serving type: bottle Reviewed on: 04-18-2009

Bottle, 33 cl at Afrikamuseum, Tervuren (Brussel). Yellow beer with little non-lacing white head disappearing very fast. Aromaa = bananas, Taste = bananas + sweet. Not a bad taste, but actually this isn’t a beer, but a sort of banana limonade with alcohol. But posiitve: the banana smell and taste don’t seem artificial.

Yellow with little head. Aroma was very much of bananas. So was the taste, which was overpowering. Also very sweet. Drinkable but come on I want to actually taste beer not just sweet bananas.

A Mes rate. Bottle at home.
Banana yellow colour. Banana syrup flavour and aroma. Full on sugar all round with a cloying finish. Absolutely shocking.

Aroma is super sweet and banana-ish. Appearance is nothing special. Flavor is very sweet. Way more banana than beer. Pretty solid though. Make sure you like bananas.

330 ml bottle. Finland. Clear yellow colour with small white head. Aroma is just like in banana yogurt, quite artificial and sweet. Flavour is sweet, very sweet and banana. Also sourish. Artificial. I’m sorry, I couldn’t finish this.

MAN GOO BONANZA ! This little number started well with the appetising smell of bananas and the rich cloying taste of a sharp cidery beer. The experience though wore off in the second half of the drink which became tired, oversweet and unlikable. Even questionnable whether a Belgian beer anyway
