A lightly hazed golden gose with a thin white head. In aroma, nice tart lemon malt with light Brett, light lactic notes, light Epsom salts, very nice. In mouth, a nice tart yet sweet fruity malt with light lemon notes, lactic acid notes, pleasant and refreshing. On tap at Hired Hands.

This was poured into a pokal.
The appearance was a modest transparent to semi-cloudy yellow color with a self-paced carbonation rising nicely. Head quickly dissipates. Lacing slides quickly into the beer.
The smell starts off with a sour/bitter blood orange rind. Sour mashed wheat is there underneath riding in for the balance. Slight salt ever so subtle. Lemon slides in as it warms.
The taste was there. Starts sour like a gose should in the flavor, takes in the blood orange bitterness, subtle sweet pulp - somewhat there. Salty to sour finish. No aftertaste.
On the palate, this one sat about a light on the body with a nice crisp sweet to sour sessionable feel, definitely crushable!
Overall, damn nice gose, this company does the lower ABV-ed beers really well!
