Fairly hazy Super crazy deep pink, ruby and light violet coloured body with a thick, five centimetre tall pure pink and slightly frothy head, all atop the 90 per cent opaque glowing coloured beer! Aroma of crazy berries with blueberries, raspberries, wheat, tart lemons and a bit of lactose noticeable throughout, with some yeast and light alcohol that shows through at the end. Light to Medium-bodied; Strong berry flavours dominate at first with a lot of fructose and fruit-based sweetness with a dash of dry grain and hay on the edges, but a lot of tart and lightly floral notes that show more of the earthy and pure flavours than most others that are similar in style, but that makes this more complex and enjoyable. Aftertaste is tart, fresh and very refreshing that has a great fruit profile with a smooth balance of fresh wheat and a light earthy finish. Overall, a good one to try and very nice if you like fruit beers, goses, sours or even berliners - since this is sort of an amalgamation of all those - done right! Great, overall! I sampled this sixteen ounce can, purchased from Crystal City Wine Shop in Arlington, Virginia on 18-October-2019 for US$4,31 sampled at home in Washinton on 08-November-2019.

I'm super positive this has way more the daily suggested amount of vitamin C, so many berries! Thick and ultra berry forward with a tiny salty back or tartness, i assume cause gose but it's gooood.

16 ounce can into tulip glass, canned in 6/2019. Pours very hazy deep ruby red/orange, light pink/purple color with a 1-2 finger dense and rocky light pink head with fantastic retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice dense spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of huge juicy/tart/tangy raspberry, strawberry, blackberry, blueberry, fruit jam/skin/seed, lemon, lime, citrus zest, orange, peach, plum, pear, apricot, red/green apple, currant, red grape/wine, sea salt, hay, straw, grass, wheat, cracker, biscuit dough, light peppercorn/lacto funk, and yeast earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of berries, lemon zest, fruity/acidic yeast, and pale/wheat malt notes; with big strength. Taste of huge juicy/tart/tangy raspberry, strawberry, blackberry, blueberry, fruit jam/skin/seed, lemon, lime, citrus zest, orange, peach, plum, pear, apricot, red/green apple, currant, red grape/wine, sea salt, hay, straw, grass, wheat, cracker, biscuit dough, light peppercorn/lacto funk, and yeast earthiness. Light-moderate fruity/lactic tartness, fruit tang, and light spiciness on the finish. Lingering notes of tart/tangy berries, lemon, lime, citrus zest, orange, peach, plum, pear, apricot, red/green apple, currant, red grape/wine, sea salt, hay, straw, grass, wheat, cracker, biscuit dough, light peppercorn/lacto funk, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a while. Incredible complexity, robustness, and balance of berries, lemon zest, fruity/acidic yeast, and pale/wheat malt flavors; with a fantastic malt/tartness and tangy fruit balance; with no cloying/puckering flavors after the finish. Light-moderate increasing dryness from lingering tartness and tangy fruit. Medium carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth, moderately creamy/bready/grainy, fairly acidic/tangy/tannic, and lightly saline mouthfeel that is fantastic. Zero warming alcohol for 6%. Overall this is an incredible fruited gose! All around fantastic complexity, robustness, and balance of berries, lemon zest, fruity/acidic yeast, and pale/wheat malt flavors; very smooth and refreshing to drink with the modestly acidic/tangy/tannic/drying finish; fantastically soft feel, not overly lactic/salty. Fantastic balance of super juicy/jammy berries and Lacto complexity; with a great pale/wheat malt backbone against acidity. Light residual sweetness with lingering acidic/tangy dryness. A highly enjoyable offering, and amazingly spot on style example.
