Beer – #13 in a series – Banana Bread Beer

Gosh, This is a very ‘fizzy” on the tounge beer this one. And whilst hit smells like Bananas it’s not in a banana way, more the sort of the banana you get from lolls, a faux banana.

The Wells Brewery say; “This unique brew combines all the traditional qualities and style of a Charles Wells beer with the subtle flavour of banana” and they’ve been at it since at least 2002 when they won a prize for best in show.

Pdubyah says “what a weird concoction”. The label says it’s made with Fair trade bananas so that’s alright then, isn’t it? It might be that fair trade bananas taste like candy bananas. Who knows.

Not quite the taste sensation that it implies, nor is it something that I think I’d be happy with as a ‘Session” beer. For mine it promises more than a passing sense of smell and for that reason on the arbitrary pdubyah-o-meter is’s a 3 out of 5 or 6 from 10 if you’re old money.

But at 5.2 Alc/Vol and in a pint size I might not care after a couple. And thanks again New World Supermarket Albany you have an amazing selection
