Appearance - Pours thick into the glass and opaque. Muddled orange color. Off-white, half finger width head that fizzles down in fair time to a thin, broken chain of islands across the surface. No lacing, but plenty of fruit sediment dirtying the glass.

Smell - Pineapple first, with strawberry and banana aroma not far behind.

Taste - Strawberry and banana take the helm upfront, with lesser pineapple bite adding zing shortly after and through to the end.

Mouthfeel - Thick and full-bodied with some bitey carbonation. Fruit sediment definitely adds to the thickness, but it drinks smooth as you might expect. Slightly drying finish.

Overall - This tastes an awful lot like a Dole product (Orange, Strawberry and Banana drink). I'm not mad at it. I'm also not a fan of banana in beers. It's good for what it is though. Guava and mango get buried by the dominant Banana, strawberry and pineapple notes.
