I had 1 bottle of the pineapple Sculpin tonight. As Steve mentioned, I got some pineapple ,or a lot, in the aroma, but could not pick it up in the flavor at all. I didn't think meh,  just no pineapple in the flavor. Still a Sculpin and therefore great, but would not go out of my way to find the pineapple in a bottle again

I just had my first bottle. I did taste it, but not like I did on tap. When I had it on tap, it was strongly noticeable on the backend. I like it better than grapefruit sculpin mainly because I can barely differentiate it with regular Sculpin. I did find that Grapefuit was best in cans.
