Hazy golden-yellow colour with a fizzy head that disappears quickly. Aromas a fruity with some mild peaches, light sourness and hints of saltiness. Particles fall to the bottom of the glass at last pour. Not getting as much Sumac, as I really enjoyed last year's version with Sumac only. Still, a nice fruity-sour Gose that goes down nicely.

Hazy golden-yellow colour with a bubbly-fizzy head that does not last long, leaving no lacing trails. Aromas are quite nice with lots of citrus - mostly lemon zest with orange and lime juices. The mouthfeel is wet, refreshing, with a little zesty stickiness. Citrus zest continues in the taste, adding some good bitterness, for such a low alcohol content. And very nice dryness kicks in the finish, lingering nicely. Quite a nice, juicy Nano IPA that has lots to offer in the citrusy world.

Taste is also a mix of straightforward sour notes with light peach notes. Body is full with low carbonation. Refreshing sour with nice peach notes with limited level of complexity.

Lightly hazed, red-pink coloured with a fizzy pinkish head that does not last long, nor give out any lacing. Fresh raspberry juice with some tartiness and sourness. The sour notes come out on top in the taste with the fruit lasting a while, lingering nicely. Much thicker than a fruity Berliner Weiss. Some mild tart left, but the sourness does keep well. Quite a nice, refreshing, raspberry sour ale.
