Passion Fruit Gose

Fairly hazy golden and light peach coloured body with an almost perfect two to three centimetre tall, just off-white head on top that caps this nicely. Aroma of tart passionfruit, some light caster sugar, a dash of brine and salt and a hint of lemons and pineapple as well, but very tropical, light, smooth and even showing that salt in the nose - nice. Light-bodied; Strong passionfruit tartness shows up front that isn't quite sour, but is tart, very fragrant for the fruit and then the noticeable and stronger salt aspects come out right behind. Aftertaste is balanced nicely with a tart fruitiness from the passionfruit, some guava and lemons and the briney, light wheat and soft structure from the yeast and gose aspects. Overall, a very enjoyable and well-constructed gose, complete with a good level of fresh passionfruit that is super easy-drinking, tart and tropical, but showing some body and support from the wheat and especially the brininess. Great to sample and well-recommended for those who want a flavourful, crisp beer in summertime, like I did on Memorial Day itself! I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased from Harris Teeter in Raleigh (TryOn Village, Cary), North Carolina on 30-May-2021 for US$1,87 sampled exactly a year later at my house here in Washington on 30-May-2022, on Memorial Day, a few blocks from THE cemetery - Thanks to all those who served and gave the ultimate sacrifice for my children, wife and my freedom.
