If the mere sight of this beer’s name doesn’t have you singing, then a few sips definitely will.

That’s right, you can’t escape the flavour of our Pina Colada sour. Made with all the trademarks of the classic cocktail, we’ve blended juicy pineapple puree with rich coconut to create that tropical taste you’re looking for.

Can at home picked up from Morrisons. A hazed golden orange coloured pour with a sticky lasting white head. Aroma is semi sweet, creamy pineapple, canned pineapple, lemon rind, lemon meringue. Flavour is composed of semi sweet, prickly pineapple, creamy coconut, grassy finish. Palate is semi sweet, creamy, highish carbonation. Pretty cool.

I enjoy a sour but struggle as to where to put it in the order of drinks for a planned evening at home - I couldn't drink them all night so the dilemma is often does it go first or last, and I don't really find they follow or precede a dark brew too well either - anyway I've started tonight's selection with this one, quite a 'rich' sour in terms of the heavy flavours going on in here, with its strength more a factor in depth of the brew. Tropical fruit, passionfruit, coconut, especially in aftertaste.

Didn't want to like this, but I really did. Smoothie like mouthfeel, subtle coconut, juicy, sweet and as the can suggests, sour.
