Can to ...tulip? Yup, that's what I went with, this is an imperial kolsch, so let's do this.
Appearance: rustic golden amber color with a sly transparency about it and a two finger off white frothy head which dissipated at a moderate pace then left some messy lace
Aroma: honey, honey, then more honey; oh okay then a light touch of malty/biscuitiness way down in there
Flavor: mostly sweet all the way through with a slick finish of honey sweetness but also has a small speck of dryness
Texture: medium bodied; sessionable; very smooth along the tongue; good carb level and nothing distracting
Overall: kinda liked it as a honey beer but I didn't see many "kolsch" characteristics to this.

Aromas are malt, strawberry and peach. Flavors are similar to nose with a strawberry and peach being mild. Maybe I can pick out some honey. Basically it's a mildly flavored kolsch.

Can shared by tfontana. Thank you MUCH Tom! Cloudy yellow appearance. Aroma of bold mango, oranges, some mild bread malt.
The fruit is here in the flavor with a subtle floral bouquet undertones. Soft mouthfeel is a medium body. Drinks lighter than 8%. The floral tones makes it different. I like the change up with this mystery hop.

Can to becher glass.
Appearance is as shown in the picture.
Aroma: mixed citrusy to piney hop noted up front then subtle pineapple with an ever so slight and disappearing at times light "candy-ish" fruity hop whiff; barely any malts noticed
Flavor: starts fairly bitter through piney and mixed citrusy rind-like tones then seems to get a sweet-ish pineapple taste and ends up melding within a little bit more sips; finishes with a little bit of stickiness and pineapple sweetness
Texture: medium bodied; sessionable; good smoothness with that stickiness coming back to show some presence; good low-ish carb; medium to low hop bitterness assertiveness
Overall: seems to be "tracking" for the most part of a NEIPA but if anything the brewer could pull a bit of the hop bitterness assertiveness in the feel down just a little bit.
