Tasted on 5/4/2013 by Chris-P

Notes:

Deep amber, cloudy and little head retention due to high alcohol levels. Strong banana with a hint of alcohol Big banana taste with and definite warming sensation from the high alcohol level. Minimal hop bitterness. A bit sweet without cloying. Creamy; not overly chewy but slightly syrupy. Minimal fizinesss from carbonation An enjoyable sipping beer. Really enjoy the big banana flavor and warming alcohol sensation. Would defintiely brew this again.
