Pours a hazy, light orange with a frothy, 2 finger, quickly dissipating white head, leaving near zero lacing.

Initial aroma is wonderfully fruity, I get lemon first, with a note of orange, and then realize it's pineapple, which I may not have if I hadn't known prior. A moderate amount of malt is present too, and very pleasant.

Initial taste is pineapple, then a light alcohol taste and hoppiness, then smooth and sweet pineapple with almost a hint of maraschino cherry, which lasts into the finish, joined by a light hoppiness, bright and vaguely herby.

Feel is good, it's got that nice pulpy juice feeling and smoothness to it, but not quite as much as I'm used to in a hazy IPA, maybe that's the lower than average ABV for the style?

This one is simple but excellent, absolutely would buy again.

Cloudy dirty amber. Minimal head which leaves only a few spots.

More weedy hop noise than pineapple. Quite dry considering the fruit.

The taste is sweet but not from the pineapple. Hard to describe, but it tastes like pineapple without the sugar. Decent body and a lower carbonation level. The overall flavor is complex with an unexpected creaminess coming near the swallow. The finish sweetens but along with an increased bitterness.
