Green featuring pineapple purée. Little heat to this. I like it. Thanks Cocaine Chris!

Beer went well with Phightens winning the series vs Nats, and some Sunday afternoon La Liga.

473ml can. Hazy, yellow-ish, golden colour with average to huge, fluffy, creamy, moderately to mostly lasting, white head, thick, foamy lacings. Mild but sustainable, sweet-ish, (tropical) fruity aroma, notes of fresh pineapple, subtle fruity hoppy layers of mango and passion fruit, lemon overtones, wheaty and oaty, malty background, resinous hoppy interludes. Taste is mildly bitter, fruity hoppy, rather dry, oaty malty basis, minimally peppery spicy, yeasty overtones, hints of pineapple, some orange peel, mango and passion fruit, a minimally alcoholic touch, resinous interludes; more citrusy, minimally tart-ish finish with hints of lemon. Creamy texture, smooth and soft palate, medium to fine, soft, creamy-foamy carbonation. Very well crafted, balanced, mild and harmonious, homogeneous, simultaneously changing/evolving from the first sip to the finish, relatively clean as well; not that outstanding concerning the pure quality of single flavours - excellent!

Can thanks to Kromer. Pours a cloudy yellow with small white head that lasts. The aroma is pineapple, mango, floral. Slick body, grass, pineapple, melon, mango, light bitterness, very nice.

Pours hazy mango into a shaker. White head with excellent retention recedes leaving trailing sheets. Pineapple, guava and mango aromas. Soft with sweet melon, apricot, creamsicle and guava upfront turning to pineapple rind in the dry, lasting finish.

Canned 2/3/22, drunk 2/11/22. Heavily hazy, large, white head showing strong retention. Golden-beeswax with a bright brass tint. Nose is even, juicy, somewhat explosively hoppy in the best way. Pineapple is wrapped in to the hop and malt and appears in the background as a complementary note. No twang or alcohol and just a touch of bubble gum. As per Green, there's plentiful watermelon, spicy pine and cannabis-like character, with a soft, biscuity and honey-like malt character to gently balance. Spicy finish works wonderfully with the pineapple here. In the mouth it's soft, supple, malty, well-attenuated and full of lush, juicy hops adding light tropical, orange juice and watermelon notes in concert with light bubble gum, more spice and juicy/spicy pineapple that is woven nicely in to the beer. Nothing stands out of balance here, with juicy fruits, tons of watermelon and honey-rich malts all comforting the palate and delivering a ton of flavor. Add to it the spicy, hint-of-pine-like bitterness of Green and I don't think I can ask for much more balanced of a beer. As well, this is exactly how I want my IPAs. Fruity, soft, juicy, lightly malty (but still dry overall), with just enough bitterness to balance and refresh the palate on the end. The pineapple, done with restraint, adds another light layer of complexity for icing on the cake. Green seems to show more batch-to-batch variation than many at TH, but this can was absolutely stunning.

Pours a hazy, lemon-banana yellow, with smallish head. Aroma is citrus and tropical fruit (some pineapple, though not as much as you might expect). Flavor follows, though, again, the pineapple isn't really that noticeable (I had this right on the heels of a regular Green and really couldn't tell the difference!). It's not bad by any means, but I don't think the pineapple addition made much difference. Soft mouthfeel. Slightly bitter, hoppy finish. Typical Tree House brilliance...
