“ | While it's no stranger to stringed instruments, the Shugabeats has always had a closer affinity to the rhythm selection. An accomplished gardener, it cultivates and sustains a living drumkit made of different types of mushrooms. When struck, the cymbal-shrooms release a fine amber powder, which is why so many Shugabeats' beards are tinted likewise. | ” |

Notes
- The name "Shugabeats" is a portmanteau of the band Sugarland and a beat, an accent or rhythmic unit in music.
- Shugabeats is part of a whole new family of monsters, the Shugafam, native to the Shugabush Island. This information was discovered via an in-game loading screen, before the island was officially revealed.
- On December 9th, 2013, Big Blue Bubble tweeted: "A certain Special Edition monster is arriving on Cold Island very soon… but what else is coming? Find out this week!"
- The Shugabeats is the only member of the Shugafam to have green eyes; the rest have blue.
- There is a glitch where growing Shugabeats by feeding it to a certain level causes its drum to escape the 2x2 square the Shugabeats actually occupies, allowing it to clash with nearby objects on the Island.
