Odd, ghostly white hued very light golden coloured body with a very thick four to five centimetre tall ultra-white head that caps the beer nicely with a great microfoam on top of the twenty five per cent opaque nice light gold glow. Aroma of crisp, limey, wheatie a nd very nice briney qualities that are very reminiscent of any real gose - very nice in the nose! Light-bodied; Crisp, limey, slightly wheatie and especially briney, salty flavours show at first with a subdued sweetness that almost bring out a 7-Up, Sprite or even Squirt-like flavour, but the slightly salt and tarter lime flavours help out with that at the end. Aftertaste is nice, light and showing good flavours throughout, with a lot of limes, wheat and more brine than anything else, without anything fake or cardboardie and nothing really Non-Alcoholic about this, in a great way - it tastes like a real gose - this would be great in the summertime while trying to stay away from alcohol - perhaps the best Non-Alcoholic product that I've had this entire month - great to have on an 80 degF day here in March, glad I saved it for a great time to enjoy during my N/A month! I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased from Wegman's [grocery] in Fairfax, Virginia on 18-September-2022 for US$2,33 (as part of a mixed six pack), canned on 29-June-2022 with an 'enjoy by' date of 26-December-2022 and sampled at my house here in Washington on 23-March-2023.

Ridiculously hazy, deep and chunky amber coloured body with some hints of a gold tint through the haze, but a very large, five centimetre tall off-white microfoamed head that's nice above the 95 per cent opaque body. Aroma of mangoes, papaya, flowers, chamomile tea, oranges, alcohol, syrup and a good deal of wheat and oat malts - quite a bit in the nose, here. Full-bodied; Super rich, chewy mouthfeel with a lot of the papaya and mango notes that seem to add to the body and depth here, with a ton of orange, bitter grapefruit and resinous pungency from the hops seem to define this, but the strong malt notes do provide enough backbone here, with a lot of alcohol and residual sugars, too. Aftertaste is super rich throughout - relatively straight forward, but again, packing a lot of punch, so this lasts a long time, but does show the same profile as the taste. Overall, a very nice, incredibly rich IPA that gets Imperial Status thanks to the fruit notes, pungent hops and deep malt bill and still stays just about drinkable throughout - perhaps aside from this stupid sized packaging that I can't imagine anyone drinking this 'normally'! This one was nice to have very fresh for a great price, locally! I sampled this [huge] 19,2 ounce tall can, purchased from Giant Food in Alexandria (Potomac Yard), Virginia on 22-September-2022 for US$3,00, canned on 07-September-2022 and sampled at my house here in Washington on 01-November-2022.
