Born from our passion for experimentation, our Briney Melon Gose boasts a thirst-quenching tartness that is perfectly balanced by subtle watermelon flavors and aromas. Gentle additions of sea salt create a refreshing harmony between the acidity and fruity sweetness leading to clean, dry finish.

New Beer Distributors, NYC can: pours dull orange with a white head. Aroma is some melon I suppose, and lactic acid and spice. Taste is lightly sour. Very nice and smooth. Not too hefty. A wee bit salty... Definitely less than other goses.

Can. Melon, salt, biscuit malt, and straw aroma. Hazy golden yellow with giant white head. Lightly sweet melon biscuit malt, mild saltiness, and lightly bitter straw flavor. Nice body. Very good.

Can from Hoboken Vine. Pours a slightly cloudy orange color with a thin head that leaves only a ring after dissipation. Tart and a little funky. Melon comes through nicely over a fairly tart wheat base. Mid amount of salinity for the style. Pretty good stuff.

Can. Orange with a very fast-fading white head. Aroma of damp wheat, watermelon rind. And so it tastes, with a decent salty kick along too. Moderate sourness, vaguely slippery. I’m not keen on watermelon, but it goes well with the salt here (although maybe there’s a tad too much of the salt). Refreshing at first but found it wore out its welcome after about 200ml. But it is winter.

Had a can of this at home with dinner. Poured a golden color, small white head. Aroma was some light melon notes. Fiance says it smells like Corona with a lime... I disagree, but this might make it a great beer for the uninitiated to try when it’s hot outside. Light melon rind notes. Touch of salt. Tartness is pleasant.

$2.00 can from Wine Warehouse. Golden with a large white head. Tart fruit in the aroma, but it’s not strong at all. Flavor is tart fruit, light back end sweetness. Some bread. Rather meh in my opinion. Sorry for tanking the rating.

Hazy dull tan colour, flat white head. Has a yeasty, sorta not good funky nose. On the palate, lots of tartness, medium body, not finding any melon character. Touch of salty so I get the briny part though.

Clear pale golden color with a medium thin white head that burns away quickly to a wispy film. Spotty lacing. Aroma of citrus, melon and malt. Light-bodied with a salted melon character and notes of yeast and doughy malt. The finish is fruity with a melon and wheat aftertaste. Better than expected, decent overall.
