Banana Bread Beer - Wells Brewing Company
There are certain products that just suck you in. You find yourself staring at them on the shelf of the store until you’re convinced that you just have to try them. For example, Goober, the enigmatic mixture of peanut butter and jelly that just might be amazing…if only I would purchase it and find out.
Wells Banana Bread Beer had the same hold on me. It seemed to show up at all my favorite beer stores. Sitting there on the shelf, taunting me with its “so disgusting a concept it just might be delicious” allure. I couldn’t resist.
Unfortunately, like Goober, Banana Bread Beer is not good. Fooled again! (Shaking fist in air.) Sigh. If you’re into banana-flavored Runts candy, and wish they were alcoholic, this just might be the beer for you. If not, well then, this 5.2% alcohol brew might be best avoided.
To this beer’s defense though, I will say that at least one of the trusty beer tasters not just liked, but loved this beer. She finished off everyone’s samples and polished off the bottle. That’s one thing I love about beer: one person’s disappointment is another person’s favorite.
