Let's face it - we all like to put labels on things. It just makes us feel more comfortable. What assumptions have people made about you based on your race, religion, gender, the way you dress, or even the beer you drink? We did in fact label this beer for your convenience. It has a fresh tartness, a twist of salt and a balanced blueberry fruitiness - apparently a complete reflection of your personality. We hope you like what this label says about you?

Can from Craft Brewed. Pours a reddish copper with a full 2 fingers of foam that lingers. Lots of tartness in the nose, maybe some blueberry skin..lemon juice. Palate is quite tart. Getting a lot of tart citrus and yogurt notes, not really much clear blueberry, but somewhat fruity. Lingering tart finish with some salt. Very drinkable.

12 ounce can into tulip glass; no can dating, but is a recent release. Pours moderate hazy reddish pink/purple color with a 1-2 finger dense light pink head with good retention that reduces to a thin lace cap that lingers. Light spotty lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of big tart/tangy blueberries, fruit skin, lemon, lime, green apple, red grape, sea salt, coriander, wheat, cracker, white bread dough, herbal, grass, light lacto funk, and yeast earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of fruity/acidic yeast, blueberries, salt/spice, and moderate bready malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big tart/tangy blueberries, fruit skin, lemon, lime, green apple, red grape, sea salt, coriander, wheat, cracker, white bread dough, herbal, grass, light lacto funk, and yeast earthiness. Light-moderate fruity/lactic tartness, fruit tang, and light spiciness on the finish. Lingering notes of tart/tangy blueberries, fruit skin, lemon, lime, green apple, red grape, sea salt, coriander, wheat, cracker, white bread dough, herbal, grass, light lacto funk, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Great complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/acidic yeast, blueberries, salt/spice, and moderate bready malt flavors; with a great malt/tartness and tangy fruit balance; with zero puckering flavors after the finish. Light-moderate increasing dryness from tartness and tangy fruit. Medium carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth, moderately creamy/bready/grainy/acidic/tangy, fairly saline, and lightly sticky balanced mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 4.5%. Overall this is an excellent gose. All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/acidic yeast, blueberries, salt/spice, and moderate bready malt flavors; very smooth and refreshing to drink with the modestly acidic/tangy/drying finish. Very flavorful for the ABV. Great balance between Lacto, fruit, salt, and pale/wheat malts; no overly salty or lactic. A very enjoyable offering, and spot on style example.
