473mL can, pours a cloudy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out restrained citrus hops, a little lactose, and apricot jam. Flavour is equal parts citrus hops, fruity apricot jam, and light lactose. Fruity, jammy, and both bitter and a tad sweet. Nicely constructed, though the contrasting elements somewhat cancel each other out.

Hazy, weak head. There’s a lot of apricot on the nose. Light tartness, mellow apricot, a bit of sweetness/thickness in the finish, and it’s a bit too yeasty.

On tap. Pours amber with light head. Pretty non descript. Apricot or sour - not really. Easy to drink - yes. Up to Fourwinds standard - nope.

Cloudy blond colour. Aroma of stone fruit and some "wild" yeast. Quite sour, not much "IPA" in it, faint fruit, with strong yeast character.
It's a messy beer, not elegant, and overall a sad story to think that Four Winds has fallen so deep.

16oz shared with Alex. Appearance: hazy golden with a white head. Aroma: sweetness, vanilla, lacto notes. Taste: along the same lines, with a harsh and unbalanced bitterness. Overall: not good.
