Beer is reportedly not as popular with consumer demographics such as Millennials as older generations like Boomers, so the new Funky Buddha Piña Colada Ale comes as a different option that is something of a hybrid brew.
The beer starts off as an imperial cream ale that has been made with real coconut and pineapple before it's placed in Jamaican rum casks where it's aged for several months. The beer is then bottled at 10.8% ABV in order to provide the perfect flavor experience that beer drinkers and cocktail connoisseurs alike will all enjoy.
The Funky Buddha Piña Colada Ale rethinks a traditional summertime cocktail into something that could be more appealing for those who are looking for something a little different to enjoy with friends.
