Super hazy golden, peach and orange coloured body with a bright glow that shows a bunch of unfiltered notes here, probably around 90 per cent opaque - nice! Aroma of fresh-cut grass, flowers, dry malt and a good deal of oranges, mangoes and of course, pineapple, all noticeable. Medium-bodied; Strong pineapple flavour at first with a bunch of grass, flowers, mango, orange, grapefruit and light hoppiness, but the malt gives it some nice support and the sweetness is noticeable throughout. Aftertaste is very crisp from the fruits with pineapple by far the strongest here along with some oranges and residual alpha acids from the hops. Overall, this is a great, very pineapple-y beer that works well, especially here in the heat of Florida during the turn of the New Year, and along with the malt and sweetness, the pineapple and hops added a ton to this one, in a great way. Very nice to sample and very well-recommended if you can find it! I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Knightly Spirits in Orlando (Orange Blossom Trail), Florida on 30-December-2020 for US$5,22 sampled in my hotel room around the corner here in Lake Buena Vista, Florida on New Year's Day, 01-January-2021.
