Mongozo Banana is a light fruit beer from the Netherlands with a distinctive heritage: it was the world's first beer to carry fair trade certification. Brewed to a traditional recipe inspired by Masai culture, it combines buckwheat, malt and rice with a prominent banana character.

The flavour is direct and approachable: a sweet, candy-like banana dominates, complemented by subtle spices including coriander. The beer delivers a fresh, clean finish with gentle hop bitterness that balances the fruit sweetness. At just 3.6% ABV, it's a sessionable option that reveals more complexity than the aroma initially suggests.
