For number nine in the series, our head brewer Big Dan, aka Biggie, shouted "Pineapple Dole Whip!" from the top of the brewstand when asked what we should do next. Simple as that. So we took our roasty & rich Motor Oil base recipe, added a touch of milk sugar and heaps of fresh Pineapple and vanilla beans to give you this luscious treat. Some will scoff at the combination of pineapple and chocolate, but somehow it works out really well!

Sweet juicy pineapple, subdued chocolate malty, and sweet vanilla nose on this one! Taste follows with some sweet pineapple-vanilla juice upfront...and then a sweet, dark chocolate bitter finish. This is just a tad to sweet, and a little thin, but still tasty.
