Tiki Bird, talk to your Homebrew Store guru about creating Phenolic Esters to get Banana flavors into your beer. There're ways to get the flavor without adding mashed Bananas to the Mash Tun. Banana, along with Cloves, is an expected flavor in some German Wheatbeers, especially Berlinner Weiss. Brewers have come up with ways to inculate your beer with the flavor naturally through the fermentation process.
