Can from Cap Tap. Pours hazy gold with a white head. Juicy tropical fruit aroma. Med body or better. Flavor is juicy, half way to dank, and very tropical. Picking pineapple, mango, passion fruit and guava. It is surprisingly dry. Nicely hoppy. Moderately bitter. Malt is barely detectable but provides excellent hop support. Good stuff.

WeWork tasting (20.01.2019). Creamy orange pour without much foam. Nose is intensely juicy, wheat character coming through, mango and overripe fruits. Taste is super fresh, tropical fruit tingle, some dank lupulin tingle. Great balance and super satisfying overall. Light bitterness, dry grassy linger in the finish.

Tap at Cap Tap. Pours slightly hazy gold with a white head. Aroma hints at juiciness. Kind of. Med body. Flavor is rather herbal with citrus as well. Dry. Not much malt detected. Almost astringent. A bit different. Different, yes, but the flavor is nice.

Tap at Cap Hop. Pours hazy gold with a grapefruit juice note and a white head. Aroma is tropical/citrus. Med + body. Flavor is citrus dank; dry; earthy; hoppy; bitter. Very nice flavor - definitely not old school.

Can from Cap Tap. Pours translucent gold with a white head. Dank fruit aroma. Med + body. Flavor is well towards dank, herbal/earthy, pale stone fruit. Dry. Hoppy. Not sure what the herb is - thinking cannabis, but? Anyway it's a powerful component whatever it is. Like intense Earl Grey, sorta/kinda. Bitter, West Coast style, xpt not the old school hops. Intriguing and tasty.

Draught at Ale Arsenal. Moderately hazy and yelow-gold with a moderate head that fades somewhat quickly. Part of a collection of hazy IPAs and this one was more subdued than the others, especially in the flavor.

Very hazy light golden amber. Massively big juicy nose full of tropical fruit goodness. So juicy. So juicy. But then in the background there is some weed notes that I like. Really interesting nose. Super juicy with tons of passionfruit and guava notes. Super juicy and fantastic. Low medium bitterness. This is really about the juice. Top notch.

Can from Bine & Vine. Pours hazy gold with a white head. Rather juicy aroma - but not all that tropical - if at all. Med plus body. It is juicy. It is tropicalish - I'd also say a cross between dank and leather - interesting. Very hoppy. Bittter but not harshly so. Let's say it's becoming juicily undry. Getting very hard to describe. The flavor verges on exquisite. Earthy tropical fruits might be a descriptor. I am extremely pleased with this one.

Can from Cap Tap. Pours bright gold with a white head. Quite hoppy. Evergreen and berry step forward. Med body. It is very, very hoppy. Pretty dry. Very bitter, but hardly harshly so. Close tho. Flavor is evergreen, tropicals and berry. Think white grape. Quite hoppy, quite flavorful and quite pleasing.

Bottle thanks to Matt! Pours inky black with a small creamy brown head and good lacing. Aroma is mocha, cocoa, maple, vanilla, roasty, molasses. Flavor is quite sweet, light bitter. Full body, thick creamy mouthfeel.
