Our Passionfruit Gose is full-on, unfiltered goodness. We combine the tart sweetness of passionfruit with the unmistakably refreshing characteristics of a gose.
With 4 pounds per barrel of real passionfruit puree added during primary fermentation, the tropical flavor in this beer shines though, but is not overwhelming. It's a beautifully balanced beer, with both the passionfruit and the tart, slightly salty gose complementing each other while still being stand alone players.
As if the harmony between sweet passionfruit and tart gose wasn't enough, we've dry hopped this beer with a generous amount of Citra hops -- a half pound per barrel in the dry hop, to be specific. The juicy, tropical Citra hops give it a citrus undertone and a slightly dank flavoring.

Bottle.

A: Bright golden color, slightly hazy, with a frothy white uniform head that has solid retention and light lacing in the glass.

M: Medium-light bodied with moderate carbonation.
O: Excellent; the beer has lot of passion fruit aroma and flavor, coupled with lots of citrus hoppy notes that are nicely complimented by light salt and moderate sourness.

Sweet wheat finish, bold tropical fruit at the front, citrusy hop presence throughout. Fantastic example of the style, with an interesting twist.
