Bananas are certainly nothing new to beer. They at the forefront of El Jefe from Hale's Brewery in Seattle and also in the Hefeweizen brewed at the Ram Restaurant and Brewery, located across the US. This certainly is the most banana-est beer, to coin a word. Indeed, when the cap is off, the distinct aroma of banana is very prevalent. The beer is an amber color which reflects it's rather light taste on the mouth. What isn't light, however, is the banana taste. You taste it as soon as the beer hits your tongue and it lingers with you long after you have swallowed. There is a small hint of spice and the way it is brewed gives the impression that this is not only banana bread but banana nut bread. Not overly nutty but you can tell there is something there. Overall, I would say if you like trying new things, certainly give the beer a shot. Just don't expect to find your new reliable or something close to being considered refreshing.
