Description
Four Quarters Brewing, founded in March 2014, is a 10 barrel brewery located in Winooski VT specializing in sours, stouts, and hoppy beers.
Four Quarters embodies the cycle of life that each ingredient makes on its way to your glass. A seed is carefully planted and nurtured, growing with the energy of the sun, Earth, wind, and rain. Its fruits are harvested, later the seeds, and the cycle of life starts again. Our logo, the moon phases, encapsulates this cycle, present in every living thing. When we create, we are celebrating the Earth and everything that grows within.
It is our hope, that by thoughtfully crafting each and every beer with this cycle in mind, we can pass to our drinker, not just a glass of delicious brew, but our passion, our love, and our thankfulness, for all things in our natural world. If you’re ever in Vermont, we’d love to have you come visit our taproom.
We also distribute our beer throughout Vermont, Maine, and eastern Massachusetts.

Tap, at the brewery. Chestnut brown. Light haze. Thick, off white head, that collapses in the middle to a film. Good looker. Nose has light smoke. Roast, chocolatey malts. Light hop. Taste has light sweetness. Smoky dry. Thinnish palate. Finishes light, and smoky dry. Interesting beer, but not my cup of tea.

Tap, at the brewery. Hazy amber colour. Ring of off white head. Nose has spice, along the lines of cinammon and ginger. Syrupy sweetness. Sweet grain. Taste is spicy dry, with some sweetness on the lips. Minimal bitterness. Light body. More spice on the finish. Not my favourite style.

On tap at Farmhouse tap and grill.
This was poured into a tall tulip.
The appearance was a semi-hazy somewhat cloudy golden color with a bar pour’s kind of slim little head.
The smell started off with some sweet orange colliding with some spices of coriander and orange zest. Light citrus rind shows a bitter underneath.
The taste was moderately spiced with a slight little bit of sweetness from the orange to balance.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a good sessionability about it. Carbonation seemed good for a witbier leaving the spice to hit my tongue appropriately.
Overall, nice witbier, glad to have finally tried one by Four Quarters and am looking forward to more of their offerings.

Cask at GBBF, Olympia, London, 2015. Hazy gold pour with a white head. Spicy-fruit nose, splash of ginger in there. More spice in the flavour with a splash of sultana,sweet citrus, dates and fruitcake. Unsurprisingly a spicy-sweet number.

500 ml bottle purchased from the brewery, shared by Eric S. Bottle dated 7/15/15. Mostly clear golden orange color with some lasting head retention. Aroma is agreeable: light spice with a subtle rum character.
The base has a sturdy amount of honey and light notes of yeast. The chai spice is subtle and marries with the rum barrel pretty nicely. Overall it is on the sweet side but drinkable and enjoyable.

750 ml shared by Adamchandler purchased directly from the brewery. Aroma is weak dried flowers, white grapes, mild oak hint.
Dried flowers, mild oak, hints of white grapes all this inside a wheat base that ends with a dry texture. The Janus Past is the better brew. This doesn’t have the layer of depth that the Past has. Ok to drink.
