Can 473 ml. Pours an almost clear yellow with a small, white head. Vague coconut aroma. Rich, sweet, fruity body with thick coconut and cream notes. Not reeeeally getting the pineapple, but maybe because the coconut is so dominant. Interesting and different, but bordering cloying. 160818

473ml can. Pours golden with a very slight haze, small white head with good retention. Aroma of sweet creamy coconut and pineapple. Taste is initially all coconut, sweet pineapple, creamy lactose, citrus, a bit bubblegum like. Medium bodied, soft carbonation. Good, captures the Pina Colada flavours well.

Tap at Hair of the Dog, Phloen Chit, Three Year Anniversary Party. Poured a hazy golden colour with a frothy white head. The aroma is malt, big juicy tropical fruit, light alcohol, dry hop. The flavour is moderate sweet, moderate bitter with silky smooth fresh fruity pineapple, coconut, light dry woody hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation. Two of my favourite things in a beer, pineapple and coconut and it works really well.

Draught at Trillium Roslindale, 3/15/18.
Clear brass with a white head fading quickly to a ring.
Soft, coconut-flavored sheesha in the nose. It's exquisitely nice, mild, yet very aromatic and authentic. Yet there's absolutely nothing else in the nose.
In the mouth it's surprisingly bitter, bordering astringent, with heavily dominating coconut. Texture is reasonably soft, malty, dry, with fairly engaging carbonation, but it doesn't make up for the massively overdone coconut. Another in the long line of mediocre novelty beers from Evil Twin....yawn.

Keg at Craft CG. It pours clear golden - amber with a medium white head. The aroma is fresh, clean, grapefruit, tapioca, guanabana, creaminess, coconut and bubblegum. The taste is dry, bitter - sweet, earthy, tannin, straw, bubblegum, tropical vibes, lilt, bit of spice, grass and some floury white bread with a drying finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Nice aroma, but the taste is a bit muddled with something green in the taste. Fun anyhow.

Can from Jeff, thanks for the opportunity! Hazy deep yellow in color bubbly white head. Coconut tropical fruit and earthy grassy resinous hops with a touch of alcohol. Interesting at first but the more I drank the more it felt like hoppy suntan lotion.

Can. Pours a clear light yellow gold with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a combination of vanilla and pineapple with coconut and a hint of sweet grain underlying. Flavor combines coconut, pineapple and lactose with a touch of sweet grain backing.
