Review - Banana Bread Beer


I had the pleasure of trying Well's Banana Bread Beer. It is surprisingly rich in flavor, I would not recommend having this with you meal. The flavor is somewhat over powering. It tastes like bananas, cake, and beer; I loved it!

I would consider it a dessert beer, it would go great with dessert or chocolates. However this is categorized as a fruit beer. Fruit beers are any beers that use fruit or fruit extracts in any of the primary or secondary fermentation. This got me thinking of trying other "fruit beers."

The U.S. Open Beer Championship has ranked the top 10:
1. Samuel Smith’s Organic Raspberry – Samuel Smith Brewing
2. Sweetwater Blue – Sweetwater Brewing
3. St-Ambroise Apricot Wheat Ale- McAuslan Brewing
4. Raspberry Imperial Stout - Weyerbacher Brewing
5. #9 - Magic Hat Brewing
6. Black & Blue - Dogfish Head Craft Brewery
7. Frambozen Raspberry Brown Ale - New Belgium
8. Wild Raspberry Ale - Great Divide Brewing
9. UFO Raspberry Hefeweizen - Harpoon Brewery
10. Samuel Smiths Organic Strawberry Ale, Samuel Smith Brewery

Happy Sampling!!
