Pours a hazy/cloudy yellow colour and a head so huge I had to pour it into two glasses. Aroma's: strong pineapple at first, making way for grassy and citrussy hops and light grain. Retronasal it's grassy hops, light pineapple sourish. Flavour is light moderate bitter, and hints of sweet and fruity sour. Light bodied. Carbonation on the high side, but not as bad as expected. Finish is dry, pineapple, moderate bitter. Pleasant enough.
