Tap at Cap Hop. Pours hazy gold with a white head. Aroma is tropical fruit. Med body. Flavor suggests passionfruit and plum. Mild caramel support. Not exactly dry, but not at all sweet. Mildly earthy. Mildly bitter. Tasty, fruity ale. Nice.

Tap from a huge wooden keg at Cap Tap. Pours light hazy gold with a white head. Flavor is clean, somewhat malty with some earthy citrus. It's towards dry. Hint of fresh wood - no particular flavor. Mildly bitter. Drinks a treat. Very sessionable!

Can from Corti Bros. Pours lemony, bright gold with a white head. Aroma is quite mixed. Fruity, herbal, tropical, citrus. Not a large amount of hop, but more than most lagers. :) Pale malt. Pretty dry. A hint of earthy. Moderately bitter. Crisp and clean might be applied. It's very good tasting and quite enjoyable.

(On tap) Clear pale amber with small white head. Nice aroma - orange with plenty be notes. Medium body with great carbonation. Taste is a good balance of tangy fruity flavors and gentle caramel malt sweetness. The fruitiness has orange notes to it. Thereβs pleasant but restrained bitterness in the finish. Very nice.

(On tap) Black with a grey tan head. Smoky ashy aroma with dark malt notes. Medium body with light carbonation, smooth. Dark malt, with chocolate and bourbon hints, with a nice offsetting tangy fruity taste. Very drinkable.

Can from Cap Tap. Pours dirty/hazy/grapefruit with a white head. Lush hop aroma. Med body or so. Flavor is citrus/melon/white berry (green melon). Juicily undry. Fairly hoppy. Moderately bitter. Important thing is that it has tasty flavor. Good!

Tap at The Bank in downtown Sacramento, CA. Pours bright gold with a white head. Aroma seems tropical. Med body. Flavor is mildly tropically semi-juicy. I think I find melon, guava, passion fruit (or maybe it's pineapple) and citrus. Flavors are not super strong. It's lightly bready; moderately dry; moderately bitter; but much more than moderately tasty and pleasing. Very nice lager.

Tap at Cap Hop. Pours hazy, slightly dirty gold. Aroma of fresh greenery - even like pine. Second sniff reveals tropicals - mango seems the main deal, but there might be some green melon. Med body at least. Flavor is juicy, not totally dry, quite hoppy and more than moderately bitter. Tropicals is the main thing - still sticking with mango and melon, but there is a piney note. Good stuff. Very.
