We stopped in at The Bar in Coral Gables Florida a couple of nights ago looking for a place to hang out, but we got distracted by the beer list. Amazingly we saw on the list, Banana Bread Beer!
Being a banana lover, I was curious. So after a careful examination of the big imperial pint bottle (turns out it's made by Charles Wells Brewery) we sniffed, we sipped, and, lo and behold, it smelled and tasted just like bananas. Ripe bananas, actually. (You know, the kind you'd use to make banana bread.) We liked the smooth, nutty undertones too--so much, in fact, that we went back for second helpings and bought a bottle to take home.
Bottom line: Wells Banana Bread Beer probably isn't cut out for daily drinking, but if you like bananas and fruit beers and English bitter, we think you'll find it has a certain, um, appeal.
If any one has tried this beer please let me know what you thought about it.
