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.

Tap at Cap Tap. Pours dark brn/blk with a tan head. Aroma is sort of mint/marshmallow/chocolate - light on the mint. Med plus body. Flavor rather matches the aroma but is a bit earthy and reflects a lactose presence. Making me think of a mint flavored smore’s. Guess there’s some coconut, cause it’s also making me think of a mint flavored Mounds bar. Seems to be a lot going on with this. Coffee too? Whoosh!

Can. Golden beer with a whitish head. Light tropical fruit aroma. Tropical fruit and citrus flavor. Medium bodied. Decent-good bitterness. Tropical fruit and citrus linger.

Pours a hazy, pale, light lemon-yellow, with smallish, lasting, frothy white head. Aroma of citrus and tropical fruit, some basement dankness. Flavor is citrus and tropical fruit, some pine/spruce hop bitterness in the finish. Smooth, juicy, prototypical NE-style IPA.
