4.6 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 19/20Thrilled to finally try this one. The fruit combination in this is out of this world; I prefer it even over the dragonfruit/passionfruit brew. The guava and mango create a great tropical feel that’s perfect for the underlying acidity, and the passion fruit backs it up with some additional depth and a light earthy component. Really something else. Simply amazing.

Grumbler shared by Steve, with Greg Koch at his new Stone restaurant - awesome. Pours a bright yellow-orange. Nose is grapefruit, mango, fruit juice. Taste is insanely intense with mango, guava, pineapple. Acidic. Crazy different.

Draft at Hunaphu Day. Cloudy yellow pour with a bubbly white head. Jesus fucking Christ, nose is blowing up with fresh mango and pineapple juice, banana, nice funkiness, with touches of light grain. Flavor is acidic, more tropical fruitiness and funkiness. Would drink this all day everyday.

Hunahpu Day - I think my glass is laced with cocaine, because I can’t get enough of this Florida Weisse. Pour a beautiful yellow/orange. A very fruity and a little tart in the nose. The smell of the fruit came out really nice. It tastes just as good as it smell. I love fruity beers!!! Solid job, JW!!!

Lucky enough to have had this on a few different occasions now. This and PFDF were my favorite beers at hunahpu this year. At the Berliner Bash at Peg’s it was again amongst the best brews on tap. Just when I didn’t think this beer could get any better, I went to the Wakefield/Lokal beer dinner. Best batch to date for me. You always see those lame posts, if you had to choose one beer to drink for the rest of your life, what would it be? Well, I’d have to pick Miami Madness. The aroma just blows me away. Tons of tropical goodness. Sour, but balanced enough to where I could funnel it for the rest of eternity.

Pours a bright yellowish orange, a bit thick and pulpy. Aroma is very very tropical, a mishmash of fresh juices. Flavor is divine. Loads of mango and guava with some light pineapple. Very juice like until a puckering acidic blast hits you. Wonderful stuff, the perfect Florida beverage.
4.5 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
Draft at Cigar City during Hunahpu Day 2012.
Pours a cloudy, bright golden yellow color with a one finger frothy white head that slowly settles into a lasting ring. Sporadic spots of lace left behind.
The aroma of this beer is pretty remarkable. It’s just bursting with fresh tropical fruit notes while being countered by lactic funk, bready yeast and citrus. Lots of mango, papaya, pineapple and other tropical fruits but it still smells like a Berliner. A decent amount of earthy funk, wheat/bread and a touch of citrus balance things out.
Medium bodied with an explosion of tropical fruit notes that linger over subtle funk and acidity into a dry finish. Similarly to the aroma, there is a ton of amazing tropical fruit flavor but it still has the qualities of a berlinerweisse. A bit sweet perhaps but there is still some wheat/bready yeast flavor along with subtle acidity and lactic funk countering the fruit notes. Refreshing and delicious.
