Has anyone got a bottle or two of this lying around that they'd be willing to part with? Seems that Mainline have stopped offering a lot of their liquids...

Speak with Sam at Opti baits. I believe he does a Pineapple that if it's not the same it's as close as.

He doesn't do one any more.
I have a thread a few months ago asking for the same and spoke with Sam ref this - i did get some pineapple hook baits from him but he has yet to find a flavour that he likes. He occasionally comes on here, im sure he will update if he see's this.
I also spoke with John Baker who no longer sells it, as some of his other flavours were far superior in his own words. These flavours are his plum, peach, fruit boost and dolly mixture (which is new)
Im still on the search for a good new pineapple flavour... very nearly bought the forgotten flavours one yesterday

The Forgotten flavours one would be a good bet. The Guy like Sam knows his flavours.

As they have stopped selling it could you not ask where they sourced it from
Or at the very least They could have a few bottles laying around.
DT baits pineapple chunks?

General consensus of best Scopex available currently, is John Baker's Toppex iirc.

to be honest and I'm going back over 20 years I found two pineapple pop-ups had the best aroma and caught well.
The original Dynamite FW fluoro pop-up with booster. Crap pop-up but a catcher.
Plenty of N-butyric?
And Mainline, but as I remember between 2002 and 2004-5 the colour changed, the buoyancy changed and the pineapple was defintely muted.
Really didn't change up to the point where i stopped carp fishing 2014/14 and no longer felt the obligation to take a sniff of any tub on the shelf.
Anyhow I think I have an older bottle of pineapple in my stash about 20ml- red label, oval bottle. I'll have a root around and perhaps that is another one for the single egg mix.
Again been a few years
but the last time I checked out a few pineapple flavours I settled on JB.
And jhhilton has given the reason why I can't find it any more.
Scopex. Yes Toppex is a very nice scopex. £25 for 100ml aint tho..
Was about as close as I could compare it to a 15+ year old bottle of RH.
I see Caramel Banana, who am I to say if it's close to Top Banana but his banana EA wasn't quite on par with Solar.
Premier baits scopex wasn't bad, ok in a bulk bait with cream stim.
Don't appear to list either anymore

Toppex nothing like the RH scopex.
Try BAF version. Very very close.

I've not seen or smelled Toppex, just remember seeing another thread on the subject a while back.

I'm liking AA Baits' Banoffee as an alternative to Caramel Toffee & Pear of Bananas 😋😉
