Brewhouse Rarities 006

Our latest Brewhouse Rarities release pays tribute to an ancient German beer style that makes the combination of sweet and salty so passé. Introducing Gose, a sour and salty wheat beer brewed with coriander and a Maryland twist.
Gose originated in Northern Germany and takes its name from the river Gose, which is lined by mineral-rich aquifers that give the water a natural salinity. To imitate these traditional brewing waters, we added sea salt to the brew, along with coriander to make it true to style. We also added Old Bay to the brew, giving it a twist only Marylanders can provide.

On the sour side, we added lactobacillus to the mash and let it sour for a minimum of 36 hours.

A hazy, yellow beer topped by a small, dense, off-white head. Quite herbal, rosemary I think, even though it’s supposed to be coriander. Some sourness in the flavor, a touch of lemon, and a little saltyness. Quite spiced and herbal. Dry, medium to thin bodied and quite nicely carbonated. Pleasant and easy drinkable, quite tasteful and quenching. A bit too herbal I think, but nice anyway. 121110
