Funny how outlawing stuff brings out people's ingenuity.

Thanks for reading and commenting. I've traveled in several countries in East Africa and tasted a lot of traditional beers there. There are a lot of very different styles around. Tasting them is like tasting beer for the first time - for most people, the first taste isn't very good. But if you leave your expectations behind and try something a few times it becomes quite easy to acquire a taste for it. Many people I know hate the taste of "bitter" beer. Many people quickly learn to love it. Go figure! Anyhoo, the beer frontier is broad and its fun exploring it. See you in Africa! Chris Howdy Wilson. Thanks for reading and commenting.

Necessity is the mother of invention, but for my buds, this one seemed like a misuse of bananas. Enjoyed your post!
