Bright, perfectly clear coloured body with an amazing ruby and bright pink glow and a subtle tint of orange at the sides, and a sliver of an off-white head. Aroma of very mild cherries, limes, grass, brine and some funky sour fruit notes, but this is mainly about the two fruits - cherries and limes. Light-bodied; Deep cherry and lime flavours at first that are still quite mild, but then fade immediately to a briny, slightly soured fruit note with some hints of yeast and bread, but mainly a dry and fruity vibe towards the end, with more salt than most goses. Aftertaste is dry, but very fruity with the cherries the strongest, and then some citrus from the limes along with a bready and yeast bite towards the end, with the aforementioned salt and funky yeast characteristics. Overall, an okay and slightly funky beer that is very fruity, even more salty and briny and less complex and enjoyable than I expected. Passable, but not worth going after, for fruits, for sour qualities or anything else really, but this is much more of a gose than others, as this has a large salt and brine quotient. I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased from Giant Food in Arlington (Columbia Pike), Virginia on 21-November-2019 for US$1,87 sampled at my house in Washington on 10-May-2020, Mother's Day 2020 after a great day with my wife and three kids.
