Can at home, from J and B Craft Drinks, Amsterdam, 9th November 2025. Pours a thick and hazy yellow orange, aroma is tropical and maybe pineapple. Taste is intense, fruity and earthy. Excellent
Thanks Tom. Delicious 😋

Can date illegible. Drunk 10/1/25, compliments of tfontana. Thanks, Tom!
Heavily hazy, murky brass-bronze. Large, off-white head, steadily to partial cover.
Juicy pineapple isn't overdone or too sweet/punchy/artificial. It works well with the Galaxy which helps dry it out with it's earthy, chalky, sprucey notes. Heavy pine and spice with not as much clear Nelson, though a bit of white grape at points, I guess. Dense, rich malts show big white bread and balance well. No alcohol noted.
Rich, malty, juicy, fruity, on the sweeter side, but exceptionally soft/supple. And the Galaxy keeps it from getting TOO sweet. The pineapple shows good acidity and authenticity, too. But yeah, just a bit too sweet/juicy. Just a bit.

16 oz can in a trade with tfontana. Thank you! Aroma is decent citrus, mild pineapple. Flavor follows with a a mild undertone of pineapple. The white grape is not found because of the pineapple mouth feel is great. This is good, but I prefer the original.

Can from brewery.Opaque, milky yellow w/ring of head, no lacing.Aroma strong cooking/musky herb.Taste as aroma w/pineapple rind, late grapefruit finish.Smooth,frothy, soft carb, no alcohol, finish as taste.Well made, herb bomb. Also, always suspicious of beers that have "and Natural Flavors" in the description (bottom of can). Not cool if we don't even know what the adjunct(s) is/are.
Fruity and hoppy, dry. Tropical fruit, pineapple, citrus, grassy. Would be better without the extra shenanigans. Nice though.
Juicy tropical fruity with some pineapple, citrus, grapefruit and floral hops, hints of bitterness and grass. Sweetish and juicy, pretty good.

Pours a hazy, banana-lemon yellow, with big, lasting cap of head. Aroma is citrus and tropical fruit, with a pungent pineapple note. Flavor is citrus and tropical fruit. Soft mouthfeel. Mild hop bitterness at the finish. Not really sure the pineapple really adds much to this beer as is...
