Description
4 Islands Brewing is a tribute to the great moments shared by long-time and true friends in the paradisiac beaches of southern Brazil. Taking it easy, relaxing and having a good beer is the essence of our friendship and the motto of our lives. Flip flops first, questions later: more than a slogan, a state of mind.

Based in the Netherlands, our company was founded by three Brazilian friends and is currently brewing in California and Germany. This is who we are, a brewery from everywhere.

Cheers!

0.33 l bottle from 'Vormann Brauerei'. Almost clear, golden with a thin, frothy, almost stable, white head. Slightly sweetish, minimally sourish, gently fruity aroma of pomelo, lychee and some lemon. Slightly sweet, just minimally sourish, moderately fruity and gently spicy taste of coriander, soft lemon, a touch of citrus and traces of honey, followed by a short, slightly tart, a bit dry, gently spicy and a little minerally finish. Thin to medium body, slightly oily mouthfeel, very soft carbonation. Decent Gose, easily drinkable, don't really get the cashew I think.
