Our unfiltered and refreshing German-style wheat beer is full on flavor yet light on the palate. Authentic hefeweizen yeast creates the compelling aromas of bananas, citrus, and cloves, while the all wheat and malt body perfectly captures the brilliance of a golden Florida sunset.

12 ounce can into a pint glass.
Reasonable foam sits atop the golden brew.
Aroma of classic hefe. Clove right up front. Banana right behind.
Taste wise, this is not a bad effort from Funky Buddha - I have been pretty hard on their techniques, they use a lot of syrup. But not here. Fresh, classic, pure ingredients.
Feel is light, leaning to medium body, medium carbonation.
Overall, not too bad.,. I’ll finish the sixer and keep it in mind.,.

Part of an Advent calendar.
Best by December 2022. Yikes.
Pours a mostly clear pale gold with a small head of foam with some lacing.
Smells of cloves and banana, not much beyond that as the cloves are really strong.
Wheat, big cloves, bananas, eh...rather typical of the style, just not in the freshest way.
Light body and carbonation.
Good enough, I guess.

En Wonder of the Seas (Playmaker's Bar), en Civitavecchia. De barril. Buenísima hefe, como las mejores alemanas, salvo por el precio
