A stylish wheat with a tropical personality. Infused with fresh pineapple juice from Fair Trade Costa Rican farms, takes traditional wheat beer and adds some seriously cool character.

Canned. Thank you Jacob and Peter for the state tick! Orange and hazy with a foamy white head that soon dissipates. Aroma somewhat in the direction of a Weizen with the wheat and banana overtones. Noticeable pineapple in the background. Taste is both sweet and tart, full of banana, pineapple syrup and yeasty white bread. Body is medium, well carbonated at the outset, although this soon fades. An odd one but interesting and refreshing on a hot summer day.

Can at home, Nivala. Color is cloudy slightly murky orange with very small white head. Aromas and flavors: Sweetness, tropical fruits, pineapple, some wheat and malts. Flat and boring. Mixture between pineapple juice and beer doesn't work. Not much beer elements.

355ml can. Cloudy, orangey golden colour with small to average, frothy, fading white head. Sweet-ish pineapple aroma, notes of canned pineapple "in context", i.e. with sirupy and metallic hints. Taste is sweet-ish fruity, notes of canned pineapple again, minimally bready, wheaty overtones with banana touch. Flattering sweetness, easy drinkable - OK.

Cloudy medium golden colour, small fizzy white head, vanishes quickly, light lacing. Shy aroma pale malts, pineapple, light floral hops. Taste medium sweet and slightly bitter, malty, hint of wheat, pineapple (also slightly retronasal), tropical fruits. Some herbal notes in the aftertaste, light body, watery to sticky texture, soft carbonation. Decent fruit beer, must be quite refreshing in the summertime...

Shared 12 oz. can. Hazy yellow, white head. Aroma of fruit and spice. Taste is mildly fruity, syrup, faint pineapple, spice, wheat, yeast. Finishes with a weird, unpleasant and unidentifiable aftertaste.

12 oz can poured to a shaker pint at Two Brothers Tap House & Brewery in Scottsdale, Arizona. The pour is a slightly hazed orange with a nice 1 inch white head. The aroma is big floral, sweet pineapple and a bit of herbal. The taste is huge sweet pineapple fruit up front and pretty much not much else. Tasted like an pineapple IPA radler. The palate is medium to light bodied with soft carbonation and an herbal pineapple finish. Not that clean as it warms.

On tap at SanTan, pours a hazy pale golden yellow with a small white head. Aroma rings out subdued pineapple and soft wheaty notes. Flavour is fruity, with lots of pineapple and soft wheaty notes. Nice incorporation of the pineapple. Decent but boring.

A hazed golden amber ale with a thick frothy lacing white head. In aroma, sweet fruity malt with light pineapple juice, light metallic notes, so-so. In mouth, a rather sweet cloying pineapple juice with metallic harshness, grassy hops, light orange, so-so. Can from PHX, 1 year old.

Tap. Hazy butterscotch, small white head, decent lacing. Aroma is light, hints of wheat and fruit, can’t really get pine apple. Flavor is light sweet, some pineapple here, but very muted, more like an almost citric sweetness, wheat notes present, with some clove and bubblegum that suggests that this is still brewed with a hefe yeast, but filtered. Medium body. Oddly pleasant.
