16 ounce can into tulip glass, canned in 9/2019. Pours moderately hazy/cloudy pale golden yellow color with a 1-2 finger fairly foamy and fluffy white head with great retention, that reduces to a thin cap that lingers. Nice spotty foamy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of big juicy/tart/tangy mangoes, melon, fruit skin, lemon, lime, orange, peach, pear, apricot, red/green apple, white grape/wine, sea salt, hay, straw, grass, wheat, white bread, light lacto funk, and yeast earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of mangoes, fruity/acidic yeast, moderate salt, and pale/wheat malt notes; with big strength. Taste of big juicy/tart/tangy mangoes, melon, fruit skin, lemon, lime, orange, peach, pear, apricot, red/green apple, white grape/wine, sea salt, hay, straw, grass, wheat, white bread, light lacto funk, and yeast earthiness. Light-moderate fruity/lactic tartness, fruit tang, and light spiciness on the finish. Lingering notes of tart/tangy mangoes, melon, fruit skin, lemon, lime, orange, peach, pear, apricot, red/green apple, white grape/wine, sea salt, hay, straw, grass, wheat, white bread, light lacto funk, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Awesome complexity, robustness, and balance of mangoes, fruity/acidic yeast, moderate salt, and pale/wheat malt flavors; with an awesome malt/tartness and tangy fruit balance; with no puckering/astringent flavors after the finish. Fairly crisp/clean finishing. Moderate increasing dryness from lingering tang/tartness and carbonation. Medium-plus carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth, moderately creamy/grainy/acidic/tangy, and lightly saline balanced mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol for 5.8%. Overall this is an awesome fruited gose. All around awesome complexity, robustness, and balance of mangoes, fruity/acidic yeast, moderate salt, and pale/wheat malt flavors; very smooth, crisp, clean, and refreshing to drink with the modestly acidic/tangy/drying finish; not overly lactic or salty. Very flavorful and not watery. Awesome balance of big juicy mangoes and Lacto complexity; with a great clean pale/wheat malt backbone against acidity. Minimal residual sweetness with crisp acidic/tangy dryness. A really enjoyable offering, and impressive spot on style example as expected.
