Pineapple IPA

Never tried anything like this, but I always thought pineapple or grapefruit would be really good in a mellow IPA. So here goes. I'm going to quarter the pineapple and add it to primary, or at least that's my plan.
Ingredients
Grain
11 lbs gw 2row
2 lbs gw Vienna
1 lbs gw Munich wheat

Hops
1 oz Ctz @60

.5 breis carapills
.5 GW flaked oats
.31 black patent

Hops:

1 oz coconut extract
