From the label

“Find your way back to paradise with one version of coconut rum barrel-aged quad ale. Brewed with rum-soaked brined breadfruit, a hint of vanilla, and the mellow caramel and oak-hopped finish. Barefoot and sea-swept, this beer is a daydream in this beer. Soak in this beer's daydream [illegible] and let your island diaries be told.”
