Reviewed from notes.
Can to snifter.
Appearance: chill haze peach flesh color with a thin cap of a white head which settled off and didn't leave any lace
Aroma: dill notes with cucumber/veggie-like tones, subtle green pepper and floral tones and a light acidity
Flavor: combines the prior noted aromas to a fair sweet to semi-spicy and savory sort of quality; finishes about the same and slightly juicy
Texture: light bodied; slightly more of a sipper; not that smooth as some of the acidic whiffs earlier seem to cause a bit of a ruckus to the tongue as they get semi-harsh
Overall: another odd one from Four Quarters but luckily not too far over the top as I believe I could return to this.

Draught at the brewery, 3/24 and cans drunk over the next few months, most recently on 5/18/18.
Medium haziness with a bright tangerine-golden color with deeper pale brass hues. White head atop quickly fizzles away.
Pepper, dill, soft cucumber, a pinch of acetic acid and tons of soft, mineral/plaster-rich notes.
In the mouth it shows a spicy dill character that transitions to light acidity with cucumber-like floral notes that are, all the while, fantastic, fresh and bright. Great carbonation, texture and attenuation. Soft biscuit and light grain lingers on gently. Vanilla, cucumber and dill linger as well, with light pepper and acidity.

16 oz. can in a trade with ClarkVV, much thanks. The color is a hazy golden hue appearance. Aroma is exactly as the name implies. Straight up pickle juice. The flavor thankfully is much, much better than pickle juice. Mild cucumber and melon through the sip. Shows a very mild dill in the finish. Maybe a hint of salt with a shade of black pepper.
I have to say I was very impressed with my last trip to this brewery. The beers have gotten drastically better since I first visited a few years back. The beers are very creative, tasty, and fun. This particular beer was surprisingly refreshing.
