It’s yellow (or golden, as you like it) and smells beautiful. The taste is delicious.

It attracts apes (monkeys) and people really love it. I think that there’s a beer flavoured with it.

Banana?

a beer flavoured with it

Flavored beer? What a revolting thought, Nymann. :o

And I thought that kiwi-flavored coffee was the most disgusting thing imaginable.

Me too. Although I don’t drink any of these.

Banana? Ha-ha-ha! This one is round.  ;D

The McMenamin chain of brewpubs in northwest Oregon claim they were
the first (way back in 1985) to legally make fruit flavored beers in the U.S.
and they remain among the most daring of brewers. Walk into any of their
ten pubs and you’ll find beers made with blueberry, passionfruit,
cranberry, marionberry, apricot, or rhubarb.

Do you mean one of these perhaps?

Rhubarb… ???

Rhubarb? - neither round nor yellow.

It might be one of the Mbungu fruits belonging to the Landolphia genus. You can read a description and let us know if any of the fruits fits your experience.

Nor a fruit, for that matter.

Who has a sudden craving for tropical fruit… anyone know where I can get one of them there mbungu fruits? (Without traveling to Africa, that is.)

I never said that rhubarb was the word/fruit I was searching.  ;)

I give up, what was it you were looking for?

Read the corrected post above.  ;D

African beers include khadi, made in Botswana, brewed from honey and wild berries; two sorghum-based drinks burukutu (Nigeria) and Kaffir beer (South Africa), which are essentially fermented extracts of malted sorghum seeds with the addition, especially in Nigeria, of a starchy cassava preparation called gari; and a bouza beer made from millet.

From here.

Cassava maybe?
