Our Leipzig-style Gose is pleasantly acidic with lime-like tartness and a little funk from our unique, indigenous mixed culture kettle souring process, all balanced by the spicy character of added coriander and a mineral-mouthfeel from the addition of hand-harvested French grey sea salt.

This was poured into a stange.
The appearance was a hazy semi - burnt orange to amber color with a quickly dieing head that left no lacing. Nice transparency runs about it.
The smell had a sweet lemon and lime rolling into a light coriander.
The taste took all of those previously mentioned flavors and added a little salt and had still a nice wheat base to balance.
On the palate, this one sat about a light on the body with a fairly decent sessionability about it. Carbonated nicely, this one had a nice sweet sticky sourness rolling over my tongue.
Overall, I say this was a pretty good gose. I liked the twist of lemon and lime to make unique. I’d have this again.

12 oz. can provided by Willrunforbeer, nice brew! Color is cloudy, straw gold without head or lace. Aroma starts with a rhubarb nuance, lacto tartness, sea salt, and mild funky wheat.
Flavor is as the aroma indicates. Tart, salty and Body is medium with a yeasty chewiness that ends in a sea salty blast giving a mineral like character. More tart then sour. Light citrus without any sourness. Light acidic note. For me I think if the salt was dialed down a tad it would score a tad higher and further more more drinkable. All in all still worth a try for sure.

12 oz can poured. Pours a cloudy orange color with a sour lemon juice aroma. Sour fruit flavor here, but a little grassy as well. A bit on the saltier side as well. Long, dry tart finish. Pretty good stuff.

12 ounce can into tulip glass, canned on 10/13/2014. Pours hazy deep orange color with a 1-2 finger dense off white head with good retention, that reduces to a thin cap that lingers. Some slight spotty lacing clings on the glass. Aromas of big tart lemon, lime, grapefruit, orange zest, green apple, wheat, biscuit, light honey, coriander, sea salt, white vinegar, light funk, and yeast earthiness. Outstanding aromas with great balance and complexity of fruity/acidic yeast, spice/salt, and bready malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big tart lemon, lime, grapefruit, orange zest, green apple, wheat, biscuit, light honey, coriander, sea salt, white vinegar, light funk, and yeast earthiness. Good amount of fruity/acidic tartness on the finish; with lingering notes of tart lemon, lime, grapefruit, orange zest, green apple, coriander, sea salt, white vinegar, wheat, biscuit, light honey, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Fantastic complexity and robustness of fruity/acidic yeast, spice, and bready malt flavors; with a great malt/spice/yeast balance and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, crisp, and moderately acidic/salty mouthfeel that is great. Alcohol is very well hidden with minimal warming present after the finish. Overall this is an outstanding gose style. All around awesome complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/acidic yeast, spice/salt, and bready malt flavors; and very smooth and crisp to drink with the balanced acidity. A highly enjoyable offering.

The Beer Store, southampton, pa: pours light orange with some haze and a quickly dissipating white head. Aroma is lemon, coriandor, wheat. Taste is sour. It is more sweet than other goses. Salt is pretty mild at the end. Not bad.
