(bottle) clear yellow colour with a small white head; aroma of sour fruit; balanced, refreshing flavour with only a hint of salt

Bouteille 375ml de et partagée avec Pierre. Bottled on 05/2013. De couleur dorée-orangée légèrement trouble, col blanc fin. Arôme offre de suite un bouquet d’effluves épicées venant du coriandre, le tout sur un léger rétro-nasal fruité, citronné et de notes de céréales, malts. Très peu de chance, de ce fait, de pouvoir déceler le côté salin. Palais est très léger avec un profil axé sur la coriandre accompagné d’un citronné acidulé qui me faisait plus penser à une radler allemande (sans la douceur). Note cet ajout malt pils et un houblonné noble discret. Le profil général reste sec avec une fine pellicule minérale en toute fin de bouche qui est malheureusement obstruée par un épicé-coriandre trop imposant. Je m’attendais à plus de corps venant du sel. Au final, l’idée d’une Gose était sympa, mais le tout se retrouve un peu noyé dans la masse de coriandre. Dommage. La bière en elle-même n’est pas mauvaise, mais mon score est strictement vis-à-vis du style.

Shortlived, very scant head despite hefty carbonation in a dull-hazy orangeish ochre beer. Spicy-sourish nose. Lactic acid, hint at acetic, coriander (mild), old grains or cookies, bit mineral (suggestion?), sourish celery. Coriander, again something vegetal not unlike celery or celeriac. Mineral and acidity not only lactic, but also much hinting at carbonic acid. Despite the acidic character, there is a hint of (vegetable?) sugar in the background. Feels indeed very carbonated; light bodied stretching to medium, wheat slickness. Weird - as expected. Reasonbly different from the German examples tried so far. A rare example of how even coriander can be used succesfully in a good beer. Many thanks to Delirium Claude and his crew!

Re-rate 3/12/16: Bottle sample at a tasting at the Beer & Beyond shop. Thanks Tom L. Hazy yellow. Nice lemon, wheat and coriander aroma. Tart and salty flavor. Refreshing. 7/3/7/3/14=3.4

[10/7/13] Bottle at Delirium Hoppy Loft in Brussels. Cloudy honey color. Wheaty aroma with lemon and coriander, a bit like a good Shandy. Mildly sourish flavor, wheaty, lemony, with light saltiness and mild spiciness. Rather light-bodied. Quite refreshing. 6/3/7/3/14=3.3

341 ml. bottle @ Delirium Hoppy Loft. Gorgeous bottle design much like their other labels. Pours hazy golden with a white head. Lightly sour taste with lemon zest, apples, flowers, sweetish yeast, lime juice, light fruits and restrained lactic character. Finish carries clear saltiness which if I understand correctly should not be tasted in a correct traditional example with the salt lending a mineral touch but no actual salty taste as here. Body feels surprisingly full for the ABV, soft white bread feel. Rather quaint beer but in a nice way.

Glass, 4-ounce, draught, during the Festibière de Gatineau, savoured on May 25 2013; nose: salt, citrus fruits zest, slight malt; mouth: salt, citrus fruits zest, slight malt, salty finale with presence of citrus fruits zest, medium body, good carbonation, lightly bitter, slightly sweet, slick texture; overall: fine FRANÇAIS Verre, 4 onces, en fût, bue lors du Festibière de Gatineau, savourée le 25 mai 2013; nez : sel, zeste d’agrumes, très léger malt; bouche : sel, zeste d’agrumes, très léger malt, finale salée avec présence de zeste d’agrumes, corps moyen, bonne carbonatation, légèrement amère, très légèrement sucrée, texture coulante; en résumé : bien

Aroma is very acid with cider vinegar notes mixed with coriander and lemon. Liquid is full of particles, muddy, white colored with gold glints. Head is very sparkling, average thickness and kind of long lasting for that style of beer. Taste: Nice and smooth lime and lemon accents. We can also feel coriander and salt doing a good job. Kind of smooth for an acid beer. Texture is thin and watery. A good replacement to lemonade by a warm and sunny day.

Tap: Poured a cloudy beige color ale with a medium size foamy head. Aroma of salt with light tart wheat malt notes Taste is a mix between some salt notes with light tart wheat notes and some light coriander notes. Body is quite full considering the low ABV with good carbonation. Quite refreshing though maybe a tad too salty for my taste buds.
