Appearance: Pours somewhat hazy with a two finger head; excellent retention and splashy lacing
Smell: Floral and juicy, with strong pineapple tones
Taste: Pineapple forward with a hint of lemon developing; some pine appears in the middle, bringing a modest level of bitterness to the finish
Mouthfeel: Medium body with moderate to high carbonation; lively
Overall: Long time want that I finally go to try and it did not disappoint; extremely drinkable with a really floral and juicy character

Triple-hopped, so over-the-top in smell and tangy feel -- almost burningly citrusy. Taste could be a little more balanced. Flavorful, for sure, but not my favorite Trillium. Still, I wouldn't turn it down.
