This Wild Specialty Beer reimagines the classic Pineapple Upside Down Cake through a vibrant, tart lens. The nose is a tropical bouquet of caramelized pineapple and sweet, doughy malt, underscored by the rustic, earthy funk of a wild fermentation. On the tongue, a bright, citrus-like acidity cuts through flavors of vanilla sponge and charred tropical fruit, creating a balanced tension between dessert-like richness and a refreshing, dry finish. The experience is complex and whimsical, blending the bold, jammy character of cooked pineapple with a sophisticated, woody complexity that elevates its pastry-inspired origins into a truly unique wild ale.

Appearance. Deep gold to pale amber (SRM 5-7); moderate white head with fair retention that fades to a fine rim; hazy to opaque due to fruit pectin and pastry-style adjuncts.

Aroma. High intensity; dominant notes of fresh and caramelized pineapple; secondary notes of vanilla, toasted biscuit, and shortbread malt; subtle leathery Brettanomyces funk and a clean, sharp lactic tartness.

Taste. Initial impression of tart tropical fruit; intense pineapple flavor transitions into a doughy, cake-like malt mid-palate; very low hop bitterness with balance provided by a firm lactic acidity; finish is surprisingly clean with a lingering note of vanilla and dried fruit; complex fermentation character adds depth.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a slight creamy weight; moderate to high carbonation provides a refreshing prickle; low alcohol warmth; very low astringency despite the acidic profile.
