Cucumber aroma dominates with light lime, malt, salt, and straw aroma. Hazy golden yellow with small, short lasting head. Mildly sweet cucumber, lime, malt, lightly salty, and mildly bitter straw flavor. Good body. Very nice - delivers on the cucumber.

Refrigerated 12 oz. aluminum can from shrubber85 poured into a glass. Slightly hazy golden with small white head. Aroma is cucumber, medium body, lower carbonation, and little lacing. Taste is cucumber, some lime, tart, and brine.

On tap at ABC Microbrewery. A clear golden beer with a white head. Aroma is pickle-y. Also tastes like pickle, but the cucumber, lime, and salt are recognizeable as forming that briney pickle taste. I feel like there's dill in there even, though the description makes no mention of such a thing. It's light on the palate so there's no unwelcome aftertaste; there's just a light pickle finish. Perhaps a beer that tastes like a pickle shouldn't work, but they got the palate just right so that it does. They really thought this one through.

12 ounce bottle into tulip glass, bottled on 6/28/2017. Pours lightly hazy pale golden/yellow color with a 1 finger dense white head with good retention, that reduces to a thin cap that lingers. Light spotty lacing clings on the glass, with a light amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of huge cucumber; with some lemon, lime, pear, apple, wheat, cracker, herbal, and yeast earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas; way too strong on cucumber, but not offensive. Taste of big lightly tart lemon, lime, cucumber, pear, apple, wheat, cracker, coriander, sea salt, herbal, and yeast earthiness. Light-moderate fruity/lactic tartness and light yeast/coriander spiciness on the finish. Lingering notes of tart lemon, lime, cucumber, pear, apple, wheat, cracker, coriander, sea salt, herbal, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Great complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/acidic yeast, coriander, salt, cucmber, lime, and moderate pale malt flavors; with a great malt/tartness balance, and zero puckering flavors after the finish. Lightly increasing dryness from tartness. Light-medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, moderately bready/grainy/acidic, fairly saline, and lightly sticky balanced mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 4.4%. Overall this is a delicious gose. All around nice complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/acidic yeast, coriander, salt, cucmber, lime, and moderate pale malt flavors; very smooth and refreshing to drink with the mellowly tart/acidic/drying finish. Really well balanced classic gose and fruit/vegetable flavors; very flavorful for the low ABV. If the nose was more balanced, I’d have no complaints. A very enjoyable offering, and very nice style example.
