September is here, and the summer comes to an end. With it, people start thinking about pumpkin spice lattes, Christmas shopping, and Thanksgiving Turkey...
Me, I think about what I should tip and sip on the first Friday of the month...
The label for Four Winds Brewing's Nectarous Dry Hopped Sour didn't really impress me. I found the colours to be a little...garish- though I will grant that the blue is a real nice shade. I just couldn't focus on the label very well, and didn't feel drawn to it. In fact, it reminded me a bit of the cheap 1970's Tupperware dishes our family had when I was a kid.
The brew itself is a decent colour- though nothing really stupendous. I did like the slight haze to it, and the head of foam it managed to maintain for a bit.
The first sip was a weird combination of sweetness and sour- with neither balancing the other. It was like it couldn't decide WHAT it wanted to be. I didn't mind the sour part of it- but the sweet elements left me disappointed. I just felt... "meh" from start to finish.
I'm sad to say that I can't recommend this brew at all. From the label, to the first sip, and the final, I'm going to have to place it in "The Ugly".
