COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
The German city of Leipzig is home to one of the world’s most unusual styles: Gose (pronounced "goes-ah"), a tart wheat brew. Despite a centuries old lineage, this eclectic brew recently faced extinction. We pay tribute to this style’s rich history by using premium German pilsner malt, wheat, a dash of coriander and salt. The sourness and dry finish are the perfect treat on a hot summer day. Cheers, Michael Lalli

Tart, dry, has some heft and body to it from the wheat. salty, touch of citrus character, could sip on this all day. Has something on the back end that sets this off.

jookos (761) - Helsinki, FINLAND - OCT 2, 2012
Bottle. Yellow hazy. Funk, sourdough, yogurt, orange peel. A bit of coriander, barnyard. The body is a bit funky, tastes a bit like freshly squeezed oranges (with pulp). Really nice drink.

Thanks to drabmuh for bringing this bottle to compare with the Cascade Winter Gose. Served in a SAVOR wine glass. The pour yields a medium golden brew with a nice fizzy white head and a bit of lacing on the way down. The nose carries a good dosing of coriander and citrus with a bit of salt in the background. The flavor adds quite a bit of salt, though doesn’t take it over the top. Nice coriander and spice plus some orange peel. Light, crisp body with a faint acidity. Nicely done.

Huhzubendah (1980) - Washington DC, USA - AUG 5, 2012
Shared by drabmuh. Thanks Matt. The beer is transparent and light orange colored, with a half inch of white head. The aroma offers white grape juice, grape skins, white wine, spice. The flavor resembles ocean water. Salty and earthy. Lingering sea salt in the finish. A bit of a puckering sensation in the cheeks. Very bold flavor. Definitely recognizable as a gose right off the bat. A very good example of the style, I would definitely have this again. Serving type: bottle Reviewed on: 11-12-2011

watson1977 (2287) - The dub c, Pennsylvania, USA - MAR 19, 2012
pours a hazy, ruddy yellow/amber with a thick white head. Aroma is pretty much like a lightly soured pilsner...crisp hoppiness...citrus...with mild soapy notes, grassy with light maltiness. Flavor is much more sour than the aroma suggests...acidic and lemony with some musty funk...wheaty. Mouthfeel is light and silky with a tart dry finish. Interesting and tasty!
