Tap at Ale Arsenal. Murkey hazy yellow-grey with minimal white head and lots of lacing. Tropical and slight earthiness. Lactose is very restrained - which made this one of the best lactose beers I have had.

Tap at Cap Tap. Pours medium gold with a white head. Aroma is rather caramel. Med + body. Flavor is semi-tropical over caramel. Citrus. Pretty dryish despite the malt. Decently bitter. Overall could pass for a hoppy barleywine. Tasty.

Can from Cap Tap. Pours gold with a creamy white head. Aroma of mixed tropicals and detectable pale malt. Med body. Flavor is pretty dry. Nicely bitter. I'm going with green melon, peach and kaffir lime leaves for flavor. Citrus too - or maybe that's the lime. Good stuff.

Can from Cap Tap. Pours quite hazy gold with a white head. Aroma is juicy, tropical with a light dank note (very light). Med body. Flavor has mixed fruits followed by a slight hint of salt. For flavor I call green melon and citrus/mango. The flavors are decently strong. The hop is at a pleasing level. It's fruitily undry and nicely bitter. At the finish there's a quick popup of something that suggests salted caramel. Lots going on with this stuff.

Can from Cap Tap. Pours hazy gold with a large foamy white head. Aroma is very juicy. Mostly citrus, but perhaps some tropical notes. Med plus body. Flavor is juicy, but rather dry. Citrus for sure. Green melon? Not sure. Oats seem prominent. Decently bitter.

Can from Cap Tap. Pours translucent gold with a white head. Aroma of fruits strangely mixed. Vanilla can be parsed. Med body plus a bit. Flavor is juicy with coconut and vanilla. Pineapple is present. Not really dry, but far from sweet. Fruitily hoppy. Bitter enough. Strange but interesting. And tasty.

Can from Cap Tap. Pours very hazy, but the color is more perry than gold. Very transient white head. Lots of hop in the aroma. Mixed pale stone, citrus and melon. Med + body. Flavor is more melon than anything, but there's citrus and pale stone. Pale malt support can be found if sought. Juicy / bitter / hoppy - and very good tasting.
