Title: How do you fancy trying some of my very young, fresh Banana Wine?
Post by: Kevin67 on January 29, 2015, 19:23

You lot are lovely people!  :lol:

You've helped me massively and I want to say Thank You in the best way this forum knows how!

So how do you fancy trying some of my very young, fresh Banana Wine?  :D

I'll post out at my cost 10 small-ish bottles on the 20th February when I next get paid. They will be plastic bottles to keep the weight/cost down. The wine is cloudy as I don't bother to wait for it to settle - I genuinely think it offers more flavour that way but you can leave it to settle if you wish.  ;)

After having had a few glasses (Quality Control! Hic!), I'm guessing it's around 13% ABV. It goes great with a Chinese Curry! (Home made, of course!)

Please indicate your interest in a post below. I'll select 10 at random and ask for the address for it to be posted to via pm (which will then be deleted).

For those disappointed, I will be offering more later in the year.  ;)

Edited to add:
Oh, I did mean to say, due to various allergies, etc, this wine is made with the minimum of ingredients - no sulphates, etc. It has:
banana's,
Morrison's mineral/spring water,
sugar,
white grape juice,
tannin (tea),
wine yeast

that's it.  :D

A very generous offer for which I would like my name put in the hat if I may Kevin. Thankyou

Hi Keviin,

Nice gesture that.
If you don't get the 10 then put me down on the list so I can compare it my efforts in the banana wine arena. If there are sufficient numbers then remove me from the randomly generated list ( I imagine something like the machines used iin the national lottery will be employed)..  ;)

Hic hic,
Balders

I have never had or even tried banana wine, in fact I never even knew you could make wine from bananas

If I aint too late, could I try some please /

I made some gooseberry wine back in September last year, haven't tried it yet, (but I have just checked the bottles, make sure they are all clear still)

They don't smell very much of gooseberries

Does your wine smell of ananas ?
