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.

Well I kinda expected to hate this, the idea of pineapple in beer just don't sound right, even though some hops these days have tropical fruit notes. And the only other beer I had with pineapple in it was borderline. Anyway, this was a nice clean IPA. Fresh hop notes, some resin, def tropical fruit, so I guess pineapple is there but it wasn't very distinct. Semi dry bready malts, fairly drinkable.

Foggy golden. Decent white head. Nose: fruity hop, pineapple, honey malts. Light to medium body. Taste: light sweet, medium bitter, clean, hoppy enough. Just a touch of pineapple. Well-made

Bottle, probably another ubiquitous IPA. Who cares what this IP looks like, its probably just another clear pale or cloudy pale west or east coast BS. So what if its cloudy, so what if its clear, its bullshitty IPA, ubiquitous and available everywhere, no longer is it special. Yes, bitter and cold, sizzly for a change, for frikken IPA ale, makes it almost tolerable. So, if I cool this to almost freezing it gets better? Let me try it at the moment it starts to harden. Pretty bold I'd say. Yes, bitter mouth hardening cutting carbonation. So much so fresh so cutting. Cutting almost makes me transgender want more. But in the end, its just another stupid azz decent IPA.

(Keg at William K Kurvi, 20180929) The beer poured deep golden and nearly clear. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had fruitiness and pineapple. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, pineapple, soap, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was hoppy and bitter. A brew with bit too weird taste.

Draft at beertemple. Aroma of pineapple, mango, sweet malt and citrus. Taste has sweet sugary pineapple, mango, malt and sugary citrus. Bit too much like lemonade.
