Description
Since our birth in 2013, we’ve committed ourselves to producing the highest quality beers, and being at the forefront of brewing innovation and efficiency. Early in 2014 we were the very first UK-based craft brewery to can their full core range. Customers expect their beer to be fresh and flavourful and we believe that cans - with their protection from light and superior seal, combined with lower environmental impact - help us to get them the beer in the best possible condition!

In 2018 the brewery and brand was bought by Lion Brewery of Australia, who are owned by Kirin of Japan. Lion's global craft beer subsidiary is named Little World Beverages.

In 2022 Lion breweries have sold Fourpure to Odyssey Inns.

Can on the train. Not 100% on the colour/appearance other than the green can itself.... Nice looking though. The nose is bitter-sweet, pine, digestive biscuit and freshly cut grass. The taste is smooth, piney, grass, light spice, touch of citrus peel and toasty grain with a dry finish. Lightish body and average carbonation. Pretty watery actually. Some hops on the burp. Fairly tame....

Can from the brewery. It pours clear amber with a small white head. The nose is fresh, piney, resin, wood polish, light toffee. The taste is crisp, bitter, pine, resin, citrus peel, soap, pepper, varnish, toasty grain and some alcohol with a dry finish. Light-medium body and fine carbonation. A touch watery for my liking, but all in all not bad.

Can from Sourced Market. Hazy amber body with a thin off-white head. No visible carbonation. No lacing. Aroma of Digestives and wood. Flavour of watery apple juice and cardboard. Thin body with a watery, slightly oily texture. Soft fizz. There’s definitely something not right with this.

Can from Sourced Market. Hazy amber body with a thin off-white head. Nice lacing. Aroma of caramelised almonds and grass. Flavour of biscuit, rusty metal and pine. Thin body with an oily mouthfeel. Light fizz. As with their Session IPA, this feels a bit weak and diluted.

Can from Sourced Market. Hazy golden body with a thin white head. No visible carbonation. Great lacing. Aroma of grass, pine cone and underripe pear. Flavour has the same qualities as the aroma but with a finish of metal and white pepper spice. Medium body with an oily texture. Soft fizz. A solid, peppery Pilsener.

Cans. Hazy golden body with a white head. No visible carbonation. Good lacing. Aroma of grapefruit, grain and lime. Flavour of cucumber, lemon and Rich Tea biscuits. Thin body with a watery texture. Soft fizz. Very enjoyable. I’ve had this beer twice, five years apart, and I found the more recent rate (3.7) to be much more enjoyable that the previous one (3.0).

Can picked up at the brewery. It pours hazy golden with a thick white head. The taste is sweet, doughy, spice, hay and rich tea biscuits. The taste is crisp, bitter, lemon peel, dough, grass with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate, prickly carbonation. I’m not a fan of the rather sweet nose, but the tastes works for me. Crisp and drinkable.
