Reminded me way too much of flat pineapple juice. You can make out some lime as well, didn't find any coconut. Frustrating because the beer tastes like it has a ton of potential.

This one pours a slightly green-ish hazy yellow, with a small head, and lots of lacing.
This smells like slightly tart key lime, a hint of vanilla, and a general muddled hoppiness.
I don't get any coconut on the nose or the palate, which is disappointing. The key lime comes through very strongly, and fairly nicely. It's a pretty tart lime flavor, so this comes across as almost a sour IPA or something like that. The vanilla is a nice backbone, and I get some graham cracker flavors that I may be imagining. I don't honestly get much distinct hop character here- I think this would be better served as a blonde ale or something like that.
This is medium bodied, and quite creamy, with a good level of carbonation.
This isn't perfect, but it's definitely worth a try.
