Inspired by “Lovejoy, Ill.” Albert King
Our Sour Lemon Gose (pronounced like the name Rosa); a tart wheat ale originating from Germany, that is combined with lots of lemons to create a nice, refreshing spin on lemonade. These beers have an interesting history and can be traced all the way back to the late 1300s! Goses all but died out until a few decades ago and have seen a resurgence, especially from craft brewers in the states. A gose is brewed with coriander and salt, the coriander here boosts the citrus punch of the added lemons, making this a very tart ale. Love Joy tastes like a salted lemon shortbread being eaten at the beach with the fresh salty sea breeze whipping through your hair. Love Joy is reminiscent of kids lemonade stands, but with a little salty kick. Made to bring people together and share with your neighbors, like Albert King says “everybody should have love in their heart” so sit back, enjoy the summer, take a sip and spread the love.
