It’s the best of both worlds! Brewed like a lager but hopped like an IPA, we are very excited to introduce something a little different to the Four Winds lineup! Fermented cold using a hybridized lager yeast, Icebox presents incredibly clean and crisp, but is rounded out by hefty additions of Mosaic and Cascade hops during fermentation. Show Less

Yellow, very pale. The aroma is lightly grassy. It's dry, but not weak; mild crispy malt base; the hopping is not bad, with mild grassy notes and balanced bitterness; hints of minerals.
Pleasant Lager, not even hopped to an India level.

Quite pale, slight haze. Low bitterness, a light pale malt note. Sort of sulphury/oniony. Muted, for an IPA.

16oz @ Ryan's shared with Farees. Appearance: a bit hazy blonde with a white head. Aroma: a bit dank and some caramel, crispy. Taste: along the same lines, a bit rubbery. Overall: mmmm, meh?

Re-rate: Poured from 473mL can (pkg 06//12/2022). Near clear bright yellow gold with small white head. Appreciating this a lot more on the second go round. Biscuity pils malt with a balanced hop backing. Decent. Jan 20, 2023 (6/4/6/3/13=32): Poured from 473mL can (4W club). Clear gold with small white head. [Drunk while watching the brewers talking about it on the club live stream recording - apparently hopped with Mosaic, Enigma, and Cascade hops and with Nova Lager yeast strain - about 4 weeks old since delivery]. Dry and crisp pilsner-ish forward with very subtle hop quality. Most of the hops have disappeared at this point. Would prefer to drink fresh, but it does have a crisp mild pils quality to it.

473mL can, pours a mostly clear pale golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out piney hops, light dankness, and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour has a nice oily, dank, piney hop character, and just enough dry biscuity malt. Oily, piney and lightly dank, with good hop expression. Very good.
