Old Salt sits on the crooked bench at tavern, smokes his old pipe, sniffs his glass and makes big gulp. And immediately he is engulfed by splashes of the waves, sea-gulls cries, sailors voices, whisper of sand of the unknown islands, he sees strained sails and feels hot kisses of beauties of faraway ports among salty touches of the ocean. Gradually illusion fades away. One more glass of “Captain Salt”, please. Think of it as of your very personal sea in the glass. WBA 2018 - Country Winner

1st March 2025: 330ml can @ Belgian Beer Geeks Winter Gathering. A bit wishy washy.. as before.

6th August 2022: 330ml bottle Sophie's Beer Store. Clear gold, thin white head. Pours almost flat, lacks a salty sourness, some mild citrus coming through but overall falls short.

330ml bottle as part of a delivery from Beautiful Beers, Bury St Edmunds. Light yellow/gold and clear with a thin ring of white head. Floral notes on the nose alongside light citrus peel. Sweet taste with just a bit of tart and moderately heavy salt on the finish. More citrus (lime, orange) zest in the aftertaste. A simple, refreshing gose.

Tap at Nyköping Brewing. Big coriandery, perfumey sweetish aroma, bit salty. A ton of juicy citric-coriandery notes, lightly salty in the finish. Loving this!

Eine Gose mit Salz aus der Ukraine...ich war anfangs skeptisch, aber ich wurde positiv überrascht. Das Bier gewann 2018 den World beer award Ukraine und war offenbar das beste ukrainische Bier in diesem Jahr. Es hat die klassichen sauren Gosearomen un vielen schönen blumigen Noten. Das Salz ist leicht im HIntergrund zu spüren, aber hat eher unterstreichenden Charakter und ist nicht abstrus oder unangenehm. Hat mir wirklich gut gefallen.

330ml bottle, many thanks to djoeye for sharing. Foamy, white head to a clear golden body, spotty lacing on the glassware. Vague smell of dough and a citric bite. Discreet taste profile of ripe citrus, some spices and dough. Drying end. Empty stuff. (PivotekaH7 session with djoeye and Finn, Tromsø 22.09.2020).
