A coffee bean is a fruit, but was the beer flavoured with the fruit or the seed from the fruit?
...but I'm not going to push that too far because I suspect my vanilla entry is exactly the same!
Yes, I realise you can dig in to botanical definitions to argue almost anything about x being classified as y etc. but for all intents and purposes in in common parlance, coffee is in no way a fruit. Next time you host a dinner part or appear on 'come dine with me', serve a 'fruit salad' for dessert and lob some coffee beans on there... It will make for some intersting conversation! Lol maybe you can ask if they would like to finish with a 'fruit juice' when you in fact mean coffee.... Coffee is fruit right? So shame on them if they get the wrong end of the stick!

Can you imagine what it would be like if the prize was cash?
Tempted to make every entry risky if this is the reaction

Also a plantain. Just behave yourself this time.How is banana not a fruit? I even checked my local Tesco tonight and bananas were in the fruit and veg section. Strangely, coffee wasn't, so I will agree that one was pretty dubious.

I do agree, I wouldn't have classed coffee as a fruit. Vanilla definitely isn't a fruit.
Technically Banana isn't either, but not accepting that would be silly.
Also, Coffee beer isn't always brewed with Coffee, and for that reason, could I have submitted Marble's Earl Grey IPA for fruit, providing a link which shows traditionally Earl Grey tea is made with Bergamot Orange?
At least all the rounds to come seem pretty straight forward, but I could be wrong
EDIT: Just to be clear, I'm not asking for points to be taken away, if DJ accepts an entry it's fine by me.
