Pineapple Ninja Wheat Ale

Canada·Fruit Wheat Ale
Tap to rate

A wheat ale built on pilsner, wheat and Vienna malt with a touch of caramel malt, hopped with Azacca. Pineapple runs right through it, bright and slightly tart, with mango and light stone fruit from the hop alongside. Underneath sits a soft base of white bread and biscuit that keeps the fruit from thinning out. The finish is fruity and quick.
