| Description: | True to its name, Bananas Foster Stout is pure banana bread and nuttiness with almonds and walnuts galore. It’s a touch one-note, but it’s difficult to hold that against it, since it’s absolutely delicious. On the palate, this is delicious again. It’s super creamy and has a really fun, thick viscosity to it — almost as if you’re sipping through mashed up banana. Banana abounds again on the palate, with notes of banana bread and banana puree joined by monkey bread, almonds, Kahlua and cinnamon. Notes of oak and barrel char creep in toward the back of the palate, adding a nice balance. The finish is dry with more banana bread and cinnamon, joined by a healthy dose of char. Overall, the Bananas Foster Stout is a total banana bomb, which is what Goose Island was going for, and it works tremendously well. Very tasty! ABV 13.9% | |
