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!

On tap at Gourmet Haus in Redwood City. Pours a very slightly haze pale yellow with full white head. Aroma is lemon and salt, and flavor profiles follows this with a nice tartness that is driven more by the lemon than the salt. A moderate sourness from the lactic is restrained. Very pleasurable.

A light yellow beer with a big and white head. Aroma has lemon, lactic acid, salt. Totally fresh. Taste has sourness, wheat, lemon, salt and freshness. Almost medium bodied, slipperyr to drink. Good beer and the lactic acid is combined naturally to the other flavours. Very refreshning.

(500ml bottle from Systembolaget) Pours very lightly hazed medium gold with tiny white head and no lace. Aroma of tart lemon, salt, apple cidery fruitiness, berry?, grainy wheat, coriander (leaves and seeds), slightly sour and with a subtle overripe fruit/barnyard character. Palate has tart green apple, lemon zest, lactic yoghurt notes, salt right from the start, and some wheat/pils type lightly sweet grainy malt. In the middle, coriander seeds give a light bitterness, salt fairly apparent, grains, a little lactic, lemon zest. Finish is semi dry with salty/lactic character clinging to the roof of the mouth, faint green apple, lightly mineral. Light, slightly watery body with above average carb. Not bad, has the characteristics of the style but doesn’t really hold a candle to some new world interpretations of the style in terms of complexity or depth of flavour.

Paid $6.49 for a 500ml bottle at 7-11 Kittery, ME. Aroma is sour wheat, coriander and sea salt. Carbonation is on the fizzy/ a bit too high side. Base is grain and wheat with tart lemon and a very mild salt. Salt almost not noticed. Very mild acidity. I wonder how this brew has changed over the years? Jeez, I really need to take a trip to Germany.

Bottle shared by Brian, thanks! Pours a near clear yellowish gold with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a good amount of earthy wheat with coriander and a touch of tartness. Flavor has a bit more tartness with a strong earthy wheat and a some corriander.
