I enjoyed the pineapple in this beer. A little on the thin side on the feel, but overall pretty flavorful for a session pale ale.

A pint can purchased at the brewery on the release day of 08/31/17 poured in a 12oz. tulip glass.
Look- Pours a semi hazy pale yellow producing a small finger of soapy white foam. It quickly settles leaving a little lacing behind.
Smell- Pineapple, a hint of floral and malt.
Taste- Pineapple, orange zest, floral notes and a slight peppery spice in the finish.
Feel- Very light with a slightly bitter and dry finish.
Overall- I'm not a big fan of the session style but decided to give this a try out of curiosity and because they've been brewing some great beer. It's a good enough change of pace pale if you want to dial down the abv. and like pineapple.

Canned 5/26/17; drank 6/22/17 @ the Yarchives.
Opaque dandelion appearance.
A rough pour yielded a HUGE, noisy bright white head; strong lace.
Banana, mild citrus & faint cane sugar notes in the nose.
Medium mouthfeel.
Pickle juice & mild pineapple flavors; pretty brutal for a "session" beer. Something is amiss here; I've had my last.
