Is this available in the U.S.? Anyone seen/tasted it? It sounds delicious. I'd love to try it.

It really does sound yummy, I'm keeping an eye peeled and two fingers crossed.

Most of the reviews I've seen for it are from UK drinkers, so probably not.

The local Boston Beer Works made a Gingerbread Ale 2 winters ago. Very tasty - they nailed the gingerbread in a glass taste.

A couple of midwest breweries have done banana beers in the past. Kuhnhenn (MI) did a Banana Stout and Town Hall (MN) did a Banana Wheat. Never tried either but wouldn't shy away from them.

Cheers!

There's a store in Redmond, WA called Malt & Vine. They have 600 kinds of beer, and sure enough, one of them is Wells BBB.

I actually found it to be Quite tasty. Smells like banana bread, and tastes like a basic bitter with a hint of bananas. Good stuff.

They have a webstore, but since the place has only been open a couple months, i'm not sure if it's up. Check it out though!
