Dan goes a little tropical/Parrothead-style with this Pina Colada DIPA care of Industrial Arts’ State of the Art series.

Industrial Arts State of the Art Series – Pina Colada DIPA

STYLE: Double IPAINGREDIENTS: Wheat, pineapple, toasted coconutABV: 8.1%IBU: N/AAVAILABILITY: 16-Ounce Can (Limited)Stats above taken from the brewery can.

Appearance

Dark yellow, juice-like color and consistency with a slight off-white head.

Aroma

Straight up pineapple juice. Coconut milk follows up to complete the piña colada aroma.

Taste

A balanced piña colada, highlighting all flavors. No residual hop bitterness detected.

Mouthfeel

This one is supple and full coats the mouth, which I bet is care of the high wheat amount.

Overall

Even though it is 8.1% ABV, I still feel this is a sipper by the pool, beach, or outdoor party for sure. Tropical fare like fish tacos or luau-style with seafood, poultry, and lighter meats.

Cheers and remember:

Life’s a tap…drink up ’til it’s dry.
