KnutAlbert (2313), Oslo, Norway Jul 3, 2008 Draft at the brewpub.
Lots of sweentess, lots of banana. Almost bubble gum feeling from a fruity mouthful. A little orange in the finish. Not my type of beer, really.

Pours deep, muddy yellow with an impressive, creamy, slightly off-white head. Super duration - it even stays after drinking from it. Bubbles are lazily caressing the sides of the glass, looking for the white foam above. Aroma is lovely banana, some green apple, lemons, coriander and wheat. Wonderful mouthfeel with high carbonation. Flavour is elegantly fruity without ever overdoing it. Banana dominates, but coriander and a strong, semi-dry bitterness equals everything out to almost perfection. Stunning.
