A: The beer is hazy dark yellow in color. It poured with a white collar around the edge and a thin film of bubbles covering the remainder of the surface.
S: Light to moderate aromas of bananas are present in the nose along with notes of peanut butter.
T: The taste follows the smell, except that the flavors of bananas are stronger and really stand out.
M: It feels light- to medium-bodied and smooth on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer is an interesting take on a cream ale. I really liked how it prominently featured bananas in the smell and taste.

Looks like flat caramel water, but has an interesting profile - ostensibly a (double) cream ale, it features banana, peanut butter, and lactose, Azacca hops, and Carabelge, flaked corn, and flaked oat malts... Neither the peanut butter nor the banana are particularly strong - well-handled, to my tastes, but the beer fell a little flat... The label even says ""nitro double cream ale" but there is nothing nitrous about this beer - or am I missing something? Smooth, but rather flat... And enjoyable drink, but not one I'd return to, and of my three Ghost beers today, my least favorite...

Great cream ale. Smooth and creamy. Notes of banana and nuts and malt.
Very drinkable, not overly sweet and AVB well masked.
Kudos!!!

Incredible banana notes, and a smooth drinking ale. The nitro tap gives it an creamy texture. I could see this being one of their mainstay beers at the brewery.
