Slip into some sunshine and step off the grid by Goin’ Coastal with this pineapple laced IPA. The bright aromas of the five citrus hop additions are accentuated by the tropical fruit of the pineapple. And just like those three day weekends, its finish is quick. Golden copper in color with a full malt bill to bring the balance to our year round offering.

Bottled. Pours amber with white foam. Smells of fresh cut pineapple. Resin, bitterness, fruit. Pretty nice.

Bottle. IMO Sweetwater's best IPA. Tropical aromas. Tropical taste with a slight bitter finish.

Bottle from Bierkoning, Amsterdam. Aroma is juicy pineapple with fruity hops, citrus, and light notes of malt. Flavour is light sweet and above moderate bitter. Body is medium. Mild and easy with plenty of pineapple, could have been a bit more boldly hopped, but it's nice.

Bottle 0,355ltr: Hazy orange colored brew with an slightly dry bitter taste, hints of citrus but the pineapple balanced it. Very refreshing indeed.

3 month old can A: Clear amber gold with chunks of sediment. 1 white head with good retention and sheet lace. S: Sweet candied pineapple dominates faint herbal and floral notes. T: Surprisingly dry with moderately bitter herbal hops joining along with the expected pineapple. Not overdone. M: Light mouthfeel. Crisply carbonated and clean finishing. O: Better than expected with a restrained fruit addition. I suppose it's better fresh of course. Not bad.

Tap at FOB, Rimini, Italy. Pours dark blonde, clear, with medium grained white foam. Aroma is an interesting mix of malty and fruity, the pineapple not being overly evident, in my view. Body and carbonation are average. Taste is medium bitter, with quite some fruity sweetness as well in the final.

Ever so slightly hazy golden and light straw coloured body with a soft off-white head, only two centimetres tall at first. Aroma of pretty strong wheat and soft pineapple notes with a bit of a resinous hop scent towards the end from the alpha acids. Medium-bodied; Strong pineapply and wheatie notes dominate with a lot of bitterness from the alpha acids of the hops with a pretty noticeable dryness and light hit of wheat from the malts. Aftertaste is sweet with more of the fresh pineapples here on the finish and a soft bitterness from the hops, but nothing too intense or strong. Overall, a pretty nice and relatively easy-drinking pineappley beer with the requisite hops and pungent bitterness here with a lot of dryness, but enjoyable with seafood, locally. I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Hyman's Seafood Restaurant on New Year's Eve 2021 with my family in Charleston, South Carolina on 31-December-2021 for US$6,00.

In der Nase harzig hopfig, fruchtig. Im Trunk cremig, süffig, süß, spritzig, sehr angenehm zu trinken, aber auch sehr gefällig.
