A good heat but somehow not too spicy and great flavor

Good mellow sweet'n' spicy hot sauce. Not quite all-purpose with the pineapple taste up front but amazing on some pizza! Personally I could go for just a bit less pineapple and a bit more kick, but good all around.

Lucky Dog's Year of the Dog Thai Chile Pineapple Hot Sauce did not passively boost my Luck stat, but I don't really care because this sauce is fantastic. The bottle says it's "impossibly delicious," and it is not wrong. Especially good on pork, fish, and eggs. Just stellar.

This is overall an ok sauce. I would rate it a 3 instead of a 4 on the heat scale. Flavor is fine but compared to Los Calientes it isn't anywhere near on the same level.

This stuff is, by far, one of the hottest hot sauces I've ever had!! It's got a great blend of both spice and flavour!! I'll definitely be getting this again and again for years to come!!

I recently hosted an event based on the Hot Ones challenge. 6 competitors and 11 sauces(bonus XXX hot ones #11). I am reviewing my line up with feedback from myself and 5 others. This was my #4 sauce. Taste wise it was top 3 or 4 of our 11 wing/sauce line up. 5 of 6 people enjoyed it, with the odd one out not hating it just feeling 'meh' about it. Heat was present but pleasant! nothing an amateur couldn't handle. Taste - 4 of 5 Heat - 4 of 10 is pretty -spot- on... awwwwwwwww, see what i did there!?!?! you get it, you get it.

I've met the man who makes this, he's passionate about his hot sauces! I love the thickness of the sauce, great flavor, just the right amount of spice to really blend in well with what you're eating without overpowering it.

My favorite that I've tried. A little sweet, tangy pineapple. A little spice but not too much. You can eat it on lots of different foods.
