Bottleshare at Chez Frog. Thanks to Fergus for the can. A mild haze on this pale gold beer, tiny white head. Light and fairly dry palate, decent fine minerally carbonation. A pleasant light clementine - mandarin fruitiness ahead of some warming spice. Trace of floral lemon on the light and semi dry finish. Tidy gose.

Can from Appellation Wines. Appearance - pale yellow and bright. Big foamy white head. Nose - brown bread, light toffee and some grassiness. Taste - green beans, bitter salad, I suppose pine needles and brown bread backdrop. Palate - light bodied, bitter middle and finish. Overall - the palate delivered where the nose didn't. Pine needles doing some of the job of the bittering hops.
