Tap at Cap Tap. Pours hazy gold with a white head. Dank, juicy aroma. Pineapple note in the mix. Med body at least. Flavor is dank and fruity - pineapple/passionfruit/spruce/citrus. There’s more in it too, but I’m lost in the flavor. Dry; hoppy/fruity; bitter. Really good stuff.

Tap at Cap Hop. Pours hazy gold with a white head. Aroma of breakfast melon and some white grape. Med body. Flavor is a slight hop burn with more melon than anything else for me. There’s quite a bit more than that, but I can’t decently parse the complications. Juicily undry, hoppy and bitter. Really good IPA.

Tap at Cap Hop. Pours slightly hazy gold with a white head. Aroma is citrus - but there’s a sort of “firey” aspect I can’t place. Sort of herbal. Med body. Flavor is citrus and a strong herbal accent. Not all that dry; moderately bitter. But the flavors are rather strong. For me it’s a different kind of flavor profile. LIkin’ it tho.

Tap at Cap Hop. Pours hazy gold with a foamy white head. Aroma is a bit unusual. Makes me think of citrus with a garlic note. Maybe that’s dankness asserting itself. Med plus body. Flavor is very juicy - mixed tropical/pale stone and citrus. Sort of earthy/dank. Pretty dry for such a juicy ale, and it’s very hoppy, tho not bitingly bitter. But the strong flavors make up for the lack of bite. Extremely tasty.

Tap at Cap Hop. Pours hazy grapefruit gold with a white head. Aroma is grapefruit and tropicals. Med body plus a bit. Flavor is juicy, tropical, citrus/grapefruit and something extra that is intriguing, but I can’t identify. Something reminiscent of cinnamon. This is juicily undry, moderately bitter, and quite delicious.

Tap at Cap Tap. Pours dark brown with a tan head. Smells like a VooDoo maple bacon bar. Well done. Med body or so. It’s a bit thinnish, which interferes with the VD bar illusion, but the flavor remains spot on, despite the coffee being firmly present. Imagine a cold VD bar with cold coffee, and I think you’ll have it. This is an amazing flavor accomplishment.

Tap at Cap Tap. Pours bright, brassy gold with a white head. Aroma is dankish grapefruit with some tropicals. Near med body. The flavor hits strong and fruity. It’s dry, towards dank, hoppy and bitter; pretty much grapefruit without either sugar or acidity. Mildly astringent. Quite a decent session ale.
