On tap at Kulshan, pours a clear pale blonde with a small white head. Aroma has soft grassiness, gentle bitter citrus peel, and biscuity malt. Flavour is nicely piney like a WCIPA, with soft hop tang and just enough biscuity malt. Low on the bitterness, but nicely piney and tangy. Very good.

On tap at Kulshan, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma has some sweaty, earthy hops, hinting at either improper hopping or bad hops. Flavour is much better, with a fruity, tropical hop expression, citrus peel, and pine. Much better on the taste than the aroma. Nice stuff.

On tap at Kulshan, pours a clear pale golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma has bright grassy hops, some seltzery notes, and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour has a nice grassy hop character, along with crisp biscuity malt to back. Nicely hoppy, moderately bitter. Good stuff.

On tap at Kulshan, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma is quite hoppy for a summer ale, with citrusy hops, grapefruit peel, and some pine. Flavour is hop-forward despite being gentle, with piney hops, some resins, and just enough biscuity malt to back. Old school hoppy pale. Good.

On nitro tap at Kulshan, pours a clear copper with a medium white head. Aroma is very subdued, with gentle English malt and a light fungal note. Flavour is pretty neutral, with soft English bready malt and again with that fungal note. Nothing offensive but it’s painfully boring.

On tap at Kulshan, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma has very soft and restrained Saaz hops, with a straw-like base. Flavour is fairly crisp, with straw, grassy hops, and crisp biscuity malt. Way under-hopped for the style. Meh.

On tap at Kulshan K2 - Roosevelt, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma has soft berry notes, a touch of dankness, doughy malt, and a little pine. Flavour has soft berry, a bit of sweaty hop, light dankness, and some wood. A bit too sweaty and almost cardboardy. Not a huge fan of the hop expression here, even if I admit it's a well-structured beer.

On tap at Kulshan K2 - Roosevelt, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma has a nice mix of dankness, piney hops, and a touch of doughiness. Flavour is bitter and piney, with soft piney hops, doughy malt, and less dankness than the nose suggested. A bit rough on the finish but still expresses the hops nicely. Solid.
