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.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: chill looking glossy amber color with a quarter finger of off-white to almost pink frothy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: sweet floral/hibiscus tones, some pine, some lemon and grapefruit with some clean malts underneath
Flavor: does a great job of blending the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet floral to sweet citrusy and then a light bitter tone underneath; finishes definitely on the sweet side with those prior noted flavors
Texture: light to medium bodied, semi-sessionable; clean smoothness
Overall: pretty nicely done IPA worthy of coming back to; I guess this one is a New England styled one? Sure, why not.

Aroma: sweet grass to lemony hop tones; a little bit of mandarin orangey notes, subtle pineapple further underneath then some biscuity malt tones
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet to bittersweet semi-juicy content; finishes semi-dry with more of a lemony to orange-rind like bitterness
Texture: medium bodied, leaning towards being a sipper; nice smoothness; super light hop bitterness assertiveness - barely noticeable
Overall: pretty nicely done NEDIPA very worthy of returning to.

Pours a hazy, orange-gold, with minimal head. Aroma is a touch muted, with some notes of citrus and tropical fruit. Flavors follow, with an astringent finish. Mouthfeel seems soft enough. Mild level of hop bitterness at the finish.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: milky yellow cloudiness with a thin rim of white foamy head which dissipated nicely but didn't leave any lace
Aroma: white grapes, mangoes, light papayas & a touch of oranges and some floral hop tones with a light bready malt backbone
Flavor: combines the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet juicy to soft bittersweet quality; finishes with the white grapey to orangey soft hoppiness
Texture: light to medium bodied with a fine sessionability about this; light smoothness with a certain dryness edging it's way over the tongue
Overall: nice enough NEIPA I could return to.

Can to becher glass.
Appearance: soft copper color with a finger's worth of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: pumpkin sweetness up front with some caramel/toffee malts and super light whiffs of some cinnamon but no other spices
Flavor: combined the prior noted aromas to a fair balance of the cinnamon with the pumpkin and the malts; finishes mostly with the pumpkin and malts
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable; light smoothness and nothing from the cinnamon that I thought would have been a nuisance to the tongue
Overall: what I really liked about this beer is that there is only one spice they added to this, they didn't overly do a ton of other unnecessary spices to this, so I would return to this one in hopes they do this again the following Autumn
