So it tastes good. Not much banana. I have to tell people it's banana before they go ah Ye that's it. I did add gelatin to keg but it stayed hazy. Very creamy due to banana and success as far as the ladies are concerned.

Would I brew it again. No.
Can you get banana without flavouring or yeast type.....fermentation temp Not realy.

It's one off the to do list. I would maybe like to try a cherry lager but that's it with fruit beers. It was worth doing as you are constantly upping your brewing skills but not impressed.

If you want the  bananas to slap you in the face maybe use more and as ripe as possible.

IMO - you want Black spots all over, soft but not sludge.
