7.6/10 Appearance 9 Aroma 7.5 Flavor 7.5 Texture 7 Overall 7.5
Can: Poured a hazy/cloudy pale yellow color ale with a large white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of citrusy hoppy notes with some juicy floral hops undertones with some tropical hops notes and a sweet finale with fusel notes. Taste is also a good mix of citrusy hoppy notes with some juicy floral hops undertones with some tropical notes and a sweet finish with fusel notes discernible. Body is full for style with a creamy feel with good carbonation with apparent alcohol notes. Triple NEIPA with lack of attenuation and too much alcohol showing.

Can to tulip.
Appearance is in the picture.
Aroma: pineapple juice with coconut and a delicate sugary/lactose note then some banana
Flavor: fully sweet through the prior noted aromas; finishes sweet with a sly touch of a tart pineapple-ish accent with an even lighter note of vanilla-ish/lactose note
Texture: medium bodied; sessionable; pretty smooth along the tongue; the carb level seemed fine
Overall: aromas and flavors are pretty spot on and authentic even if it did come across as more "tart" than "sour." I'd come back to this.

16 oz. can. Aroma is huge coconut and mild pineapple. Flavor carries the huge coconut with pineapple along with mild vanilla and soft banana hints. Steady amount of sour pineapple and soft tartness in the glands. Moderately piercing puckering. Even with all the fruit that’s without question a sour ale.

16 oz. can. Nose shows soft bready malt under citrus and citrus peel / pith. Flavor shows mixed citrus fruit with maybe a tropical hint. Does have a herbal / pine touch toward the finish. The bolder malt body does make this a touch sweet. Overall, a lot of non-descriptive fruit but it does taste good.

LSU beer tasting can: pours hazy with white head. Aroma is fragrant and perfumey tropical fruitiness. Taste is sweetish. Might be a little old. Who knows.

Aromas are citrus, malt, melon, and a hint of unbalanced MJ. Flavors are similar to nose. A little overripe fruit bsweet up front going to bitter and finishing a little sweet. Full body and okay carbonation. A little too sweet for me overall.

Can from Steve. Opaque, milky yellow, no sparkle, lots of unsightly, large yeast chunks, thin head with excellent retention and nice soapy lacing. Aroma is strong white grape, honeydew melon, lighter citrus (somewhat astringent). Taste is as aroma with grape less defined, identifiable orange and the (astringent) citrus higher in the mix. Smooth, creamy texture, average carbonation, astringent citrus (alcohol?) with dry, yeasty finish. Astringency (maybe more likely alcohol than citrus) and ugly yeast are the detractors.

Can to becher glass.
Appearance: golden in color and translucent with a finger and a half of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: slightly floral to grassy hop spicy character, nice clean bready malty vibe underneath
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas together sweet at first but meshes the sweet to the spicy hops pretty nicely; light finish of grassy hop spice with a light creaminess at the back of the finish
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable, pretty smooth along the tongue, no hop aggression at all
Overall: pretty nicely done pilsener but with that darker color than expected that somewhat reminded me of a German pilsener look. Hmmmm...well, if anything, this is worthy of more pours.

Can from Tavour: pours light orange haze with white head. Aroma is mellow citrus, maybe some pineapple, and mango. Taste is sweet, super low bitterness. Generally good flavor. Solid.
