12 oz. can.
No canning date, but gifted to me 9 days ago.
Moderate pour yields a one inch off-white head over a hazy golden body with some lacing. Nose of all kinds of tropical fruit aromas along with pineapple. Wonderful tropical fruit flavors, finishing with pineapple, and not too bitter. Nice feel, very smooth, and overall, a real nice job on this pineapple DIPA from Groton, CT. Cheers!!!

Cloudy gold color. Large, lasting head which leaves chunks of lace on the glass.

The smell is harsh with a strong earthy pine aroma.

The flavor has a bit of sweetness I wasn't expecting. I believe it's the pineapple juice directly added to the brew. This was important because the hop would have completely taken over. Relatively rich with a lighter than average carbonation level. The finish is more of the same--bittersweet.

Overall, this is not my cup of tea. The smell is particularly off-putting.
