This beer is ok. It’s a neat idea and would serve better as a novelty item. The taste has a lot of artificial banana flavour to it.

Like a really creamy cream ale.strong banana bubbly flavor. Slight astringency on aftertaste. Bubble gum

The first thing I noted when pouring this beer is the strong, sweet aroma of over-ripe bananas. I expected the taste to be similarly sweet but it’s actually quite savoury with a silky, smooth mouth feel. Very easy to drink. Overall a good beer for a Summer session, both unusual and enjoyable.

Aroma: worty with dark musky slightly spicy, peppery feel. Some sweeter malt below. Still fairly dry. 5+
Look: poured clear with golden amber look. Light fizzy top. 2+
Taste: thinner mid with fuller walls (unusual). Plenty of caramel with vanilla candy like feel. Sweet follow up. Slight mineral backing. Softer finish. Decent enough.

Definitely not an every day beer. Thought, great if you want to try some thing unique. It certainly tastes like bananas, though the bread part I am not so sure of. If you pick up a 4 pack and take it to a house party you will most assuredly get some strange looks, and it is a great conversation starter.

Aroma de banana e lembra geléia de mocotó. Pouca espuma. Cor alaranjada. Seu sabor não consegui decifrar. Não lembra banana, mas é bom. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

I’d heard that this tasted artificial, like somebody squirted some extract into the barrel. On that front, I didn’t think so - the flavour of banana tasted good and worked well with the toasty finish. There was something else sweet in there, though, which didn’t feel necessary at all. I didn’t have a problem with the way it was brewed, but ultimately I wasn’t expecting much from a banana flavoured beer. It was about as enjoyable as I could have hoped for.

Decent but not a beer I will drink again. I taste more bubble gum then banana and lacking the malt I was expecting. Too light and strange with a ginger aftertaste.

Not a bad banana beer. But it is a banana beer, lots of yeast can do what they are doing with extract. Nothing special, but not bad either. carb allows a constant head ring. Banana aroma and banana flavor. Nice easy drinking candied flavor. If this is an english strong ale... need to drop it a few points.
