Well’s and Young Brewing is the largest private brewing company in the UK and makes some of the UK’s most loved cask beers and speciality lager brands.
Pours clear with a rusty gold color and has a lively white head with great retention. This ale has a faint aroma with notes of... wait for it... Bananas!!! Complimented with notes of caramel and a hint of spice. Clean sweet body with banana flavor. The banana isn't too dominant, which I like. Aside from citrus fruits, I have a hard time getting into fruity beers, so the mild banana flavor made this ale easy to get into. Light carbonated mouth feel and easy drinking.
Pairings/ Recommendations
What I really would of went bananas over... hehe... is if this ale would have also had a nutty flavor as well. This would have really gave this brew more of the banana bread flavor. Without it this ale has more of a tropical feel in my opinion, and tropical isn't a bad thing. This brew would be great with spicy Caribbean style food, or as the beer drinkers alternative to Hawaiian style drinks. Aloha.
Cheers!!!
One more thing...
Bananaramma-bobanna-fe-fi-foe-nana.... Banana!!!!
