Tap at Cap Hop. Pours lemony gold with a white head. Aroma seems citrus/tropical. Med body. Flavors are not extremely strong, but fairly strong. Stone fruit and tropicals is my guess for flavor. Not at all heavy. Towards dry. Bitter. Nice, relaxing IPA. Good for a break from the monsters and DIPAs.

Tap at Cap Hop. Pours dark, slightly hazy, gold with a white head. Aroma is dank and herbal/fruity. More green herb than fruit. Med body at least. Flavor is dank with detectable roasty malt, and some non-pine green stuff. Fruit is tropical, thinking I can parse pineapple! Pretty dry. Very hoppy, but not all that bitter. Odd considering it’s somewhat dank. Very nice stuff. Beats the pants off many APAs.

Tap at Cap Hop. Pours somewhat copper/red berry mix with a whitish head. Aroma is berry with some earthiness. Med body. Flavor is tart berry; followed by something like wheat, and maybe even a touch of bacterialness. Saison gone somewhat wild with red berries. Dry. Tart. Berry. Not a typical saison/farmhouse, perhaps, but remove the berries and it might be close to the historic versions. Pleasing drink.
