12oz can. Not sure about all the negative reviews...I think this one kind of nails it. Coconut vanilla tone, pineapple as well. Big, bold, extract feel, nothing subtle about it. Still, I enjoy Pina Colada flavors and this one hits it in aroma and taste. Certainly not a go to session beer, but an interesting palate cleanser, pastry sour type creature. Good for what it is.

Can. A- Vomit, coconut, rotten pineapple. A- Gold color, clear liquid, off white head. T- Coconut, sunscreen, pineapple. P- Light body, average texture, average carbonation, slightly sweet finish. O- Smelled horrendous. Almost a drain pour after just smelling it. Taste is much better but not awesome. Reminds me of the pina colada sauce for the coconut shrimp at Red Lobster.

Pina colada elements are light but present. More pineapple than coconut here for sure, and lots of sour lemon. Quite mouth puckering. Pours golden without much head. Can.

Super clear golden coloured body with a very thin, pale white head, barely a centimetre tall at first, that fades to literally nothing, just a few seconds later. Aroma of puke (throw up), yeast, bread, light grain and then a ton of pineapple and especially coconut flavours come through near the end with a light brine and salty scent along with a dash of key limes. Light-bodied; Very tropically flavours at first that almost taste exactly like a pina colada with coconut milk, lactose, light pineapple, some pure fructose and a dash of fresh grassy floral notes towards the end that show some of the briney and salt components toward the end that would make this very nice in the heat. Aftertaste shows some grain, but mainly a good hit of tropical fruits and smooth briney, salty flavours that make this nice and simple, yet far removed from most beers and more akin to a real pina colada than anything else. Overall, a nice beer throughout with a good fruit-based kick, yet still refined and easy-drinking profile. I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased from Total Wine in Towson, Maryland on 27-May-2019 for US$3,79 sampled at home in Washington on 15-October-2019 after returning from a hot day (perhaps the last in the calendar year, I hope) in Austin, Texas.

Refrigerated 12 oz. aluminum can, canned on May 10, 2019 poured into a glass. Slightly hazy golden with small white head. Aroma is coconut, medium body, lower carbonation, and some lacing. Taste is coconut, pineapple, and a little salt.

Coconut and pineapple nose. Hazy yellow, thick head, no retention. Tart lemon, coconut on the edges. Light body, easy carbonation. Interesting idea, but not as enjoyable.
