Reviewed on release day. Poured from 16 oz. can into a snulip glass. It pours an opaque tangerine color with tan hues and sports a half finger of fluffy, bright white head and lots of soapy lacing. The aromatic nose features pungent pineapple, lemon, tangerine, and faint smells of lime and vanilla. Wow! The taste bursts with ripe, sweet pineapple, along with tangerine, tart lemon, pine needles, and creamy vanilla, and slightly bitter hops and pepper at the finish. There is a hint of astringency but that will no doubt mellow as it ages in the can. This is a fruity sensation that tastes like a pineapple creamsicle. The vanilla lends a creamy feel to the body. It's pleasantly carbonated and drinks surprisingly easily for its 8.6% ABV. Overall, Head Shake is a delicious pineapple bomb. It's a fitting - and really fun - beer to celebrate Slack Tide's 4th anniversary. The brewery continues to quietly produce excellent IPAs.
