We still brew this unique beer in the old-fashioned, original way, using genuine Gose yeast, coriander and salt. Ritterguts Gose's refreshing characteristics are developed through a secondary lactic fermentation, which produces a round and harmonious acidity. Its rare, classic open fermentation and long, cold maturation make it exceptionally well-balanced, the way a real Gose was meant to be. Enjoy a taste of the finest Leipzig tradition!

Bottle, 50 cl. Hazy honey colour, rocky white head. Good retention. The aroma is lovely. Fruit, berries, salt, wheat malt, spice (coriander is not obligatory detectable). Light to medium body. Light to medium sour taste. Sparkling wheat, unripe fruit, delicate salt. Refreshing and tasty as hell.

Pours a hazy golden colour with a slight orange hue. Frothy mild off-white head, average retention and very light lacing. Sourness nose with citrus notes (oranges, lemons), hints of salt, malt and coriander. Malty start to the taste with a sour middle and goes back down again to mild wheat and barley malts. A tad of saltiness lingers. Pretty good and very nice to try the oldest still-existing gose.

Bouteille de 500ml du Canada Craft Club. Les levures lactique, la coriandre et le léger citron frappent d’abord les narines. Au tournis, les levures s’attardent encore plus. Puissance moyenne de son olfactif. Une mousse blanche et pétillante, plus persistante que ce à quoi je m’attendais, recouvre un liquide doré presqu’ambré flou et opaque. La délicatesse de l’entrée de bouche est surprenante. Tout est dans la subtilité. Les herbes sont présentes sous forme de coriandre et assurent l’arrière plan. L’acidité est douce et chaleureuse sous forme de citron. Les levures lactiques sont efficaces. Le salé est juste à point. On y trouve même de petites notes de fruits sauvages et surettes tels la groseille. Douceur et complexité en sont les caractéristiques principales. Le parfait exemple du style.

cloudy yellowish, some fizz but a bit lifeless in the glass (very little pop on decrowning, worth noting, the crown seemed a tad loose). Great nose, cheese and sour beer funk, nice mix of tart and mineral and salt flavors. Low carbonation. Light-medium body, tart semi-sweet finish. Lingering salt in the palate.

Interesting that is this is the oldest continuously brewed example of this kind of beer that this would be pretty much the definition of it and yet it’s not as quite appealing to me as I would have hoped. Aroma’s raisins, wet grain, musty. Flavor’s mainly tart, hints of sweet, salt, a little fruit. Great body and good carbonation. Decent long finish.
