BMan1113VR (6146) - Los Angeles, California, USA - MAY 31, 2010
Bottle (thanks to angrypirate06). Pours with a clear golden body with some bubbles. Aroma of rotten and decaying flesh, pineapple, oxidation, cork, must and pistachios. Taste is SWEET, tangy, rotten fruit, pineapples. Light bubbles. Horrible.

jtclockwork (3434) - , New Jersey, USA - MAY 9, 2010
Lovely orange pour. Nose is fresh juice. Tart pineapple juice and candied fruit taste to it. I know I’m in the minority here, but I love this brewery. Rated 2/10/03

Trev (1424) - Lakeville, Minnesota, USA - MAR 28, 2010
Bottle shared thanks to JK. My first Chapeau... pale yellow pour. Wet wool socks soaked in pinapple juice aroma. Kind of nasty. Flavour is sticky canned pineapple juice sweet. Was an improvement over the aroma though.

DalzAle (1336) - Eden Prairie, Minnesota, USA - MAR 27, 2010
Bottle sample thanks to JK! Light yellow pour, plenty of floaties and an aroma of sugar, pineapple and cleaning solution. Flavor was bright sugary pineapple, effervescent and lingered with some decent sweetness. I’m not much of a sweet beer guy, but this wasn’t terrible.

Rustyham (1303) - Nashville, Tennessee, USA - MAR 23, 2010
Pungent aroma akin to vomit on a hospital room floor after a lazy orderly half-assed the cleaning job with pineapple Pine Sol. Flat golden-orange color, thick sugaryness that coats your mouth and won’t leave. Flavor is of pineapple life savers, but way worse. Icky. Bottle at Cervezas in South Miami.

250ml bottle
3.5% ABV
I tried this beer on February 16, 2010 after purchasing from one of my local LCBO outlets. The beer poured a clear gold colour with a thin frothy white head that lasted. The aroma was pineapple and tart fruits. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with medium carbonation. The flavour was tart fruit, pineapple, and metal.

mabel (4129) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - MAR 15, 2010
[2735-20100129] Bottle. Odd fresh pineapple syrup aroma is very fruity. Clear, light orange brown body with a quick bubbly white head. Thick mildly sour pineapple syrup flavour. Medium body. Not very beer-like.
(From LCBO-Summerhill, Toronto, ON)

bottle from dorn’s in gainesville. yellow pour with a thin white head. pineapple and yeast aroma. sticky sweet tropical fruit and pineapple taste. coconut in there also. sourness finally makes it’s way through the sugar a bit in the finish. flat and sticky on the texture.
