aroma is great. Appearance is perfect. But I'm getting that familiar astringency in the flavor. :(

Nice Banana aroma, sight alcohol smell. Nice SRM, but a little too clear. Nice white head with great retention. Mouthfeel has improved (less dry) and off-flavor is less pronounced given a little more bottle conditioning, but the taste is not characteristic - more vegetal if anything. Not bad though. Drinkable.
