Emerald straw color. Aromas and flavors of pineapple slices, pineapple water, pineapple starburst wrapper, and chamomile with a supple, crisp, effervescent, sweet medium body and a polished, breezy finish manifesting overtones of orange soda, peach danish, and cream soda with pineapple slices with no oak flavor. A sweet pineapple-y treat for sweet teeth; try with soft-serve ice cream.
