This sensory getaway transports you to a corner bodega with our friends at Funky Buddha in South Florida to recreate the flavors you’d find in a Cuban guava pastry. Championing the big, bold flavors that both of our breweries are known for, we brewed an imperial cream ale, adding lactose and vanilla to impart sweet, custard-like ribbons, and guava for filling its conceptual authenticity. It’s a collaboration that’s equal parts inspiration and admiration.

From tap at BeerTemple, Amsterdam. Sweetish with an aroma of vanilla, custard, fruit punch, sugary, light ripe guava, 'advocaat', touch of cake. Flavour is sweetish, body is medium. An odd novelty, 15cl is more than enough for me.

Guava, candi sugar, biscuit malt, and straw aroma. Murky orange-brown with moderate off-white head. Mildly sweet guava, citrus, biscuit malt, and mildly bitter straw and lemon peel flavor. Good body.
