Appearance: Golden orange with a brief white head.

Nose: Freshly peeled citrus, hints of exotic spicy coriander, and some tropical guava on the nose, with some inviting hints of saltiness.

Does what it says on the tin. Strong orange on the nose but overpowered in the typical gose sourness. Light saltiness. Tart, average to low carbonation. Drinkable, mildly enjoyable gose.

Bottle. Hazy golden color with white head. Aroma is very intensely perfumed orange, lemonade. Taste is orange lemonade at first, staying this way, with a strong mineraly bite and coriander and salt taking over in the back, no finish. Very interesting.

Can picked up from Beer Republic webshop Breda Netherlands and New Triton camping, Drepano beach, Greece, Sunday 29th August 2021. Really good, really refreshing, clean tasting a little of that yoghurt like tang. Nice, really good.

Gose flavoured with orange - apart from the obligatory salt and coriander - by Põhjala, probably Estonia's most prominent craft brewery. Thanks to Craftmember for sharing. Egg-white, thick and moussy, slowly opening head on a lightly hazy 'old gold' beer with pale orangey tinge, misty with sediment. Aroma of unripe oranges rather than the expected wave of sweet orange juice, raw cucumber, sourdough, kumquat, cilantro, spelt bread, linseed, green apple. Crisp, lactic sourness in the onset, pleasantly tart but nowhere harsh, nicely mingled with citrus fraîcheur, in itself supported by minerally carbonation; sourdoughy core, wheaty and grainy, under gently but consistently drying, refreshing lactic sourness and mild coriander spiciness; the saltiness remains very subtle, but is certainly noticeable - it is, however, the tartness and citruniness that prevail here. The orange peel factor lingers without dominating everything else, while a deeply buried earthy hop bitterish touch provides balance and unity. Nothing as exuberant as some of their other offerings in other styles, but quite a sophisticated flavoured Gose, quite true to the original style in spite of the addition of oranges - because, surprisingly, they do not dominate. Lovely beer on a hot summer afternoon.

33 cl. bottle shared with Hilde @ home, bought @ Jumbo Culemborg.
Clear amber with a very thin white head. Orange aroma with some tangerine as well. Sour taste with a hint of salt. Medium bitter finish. Nice summer ale.
