A salted chocolate German gueze-style beer. Lite, yet flavorful and enjoyable.

Another train wreck gose when I was at Belmont Station in August 2015. Appreciate the uniqueness is prolly the most kind thing I can say about this one.
Pours dark. Since this beer, I have had a decent non traditional 'dark' gose or two that were good. That smoked one was nice, and New Glory's oyster one too. Anyways, dark brown and black color, tan head, 1/2". I'm ok with the appearance, looks like a stout/porter. Aroma imparts salty chocolate balls. Hmm.
Taste, again, chocolate salty balls, but the relative malt heft doesn't feel like a gose. I agree with the previous reviewer, perhaps this was supposed to be a porter and it went south so rather than dump it, they reinvented it/moved the goalposts. Mouth feel was fine other than the weird clash of flavors that aren't the refreshing type I'm looking for when I want a gose, unless I dunno, for some reason I had a hankering for one in the winter (which has never happened).

Served On-Tap
A — Pours an odd dark brown shade into the glass, almost no head on it, and little to no lacing left behind.
S — Smells quite sour and perhaps spoiled, little bit of a salty component to it, some chocolate maybe, but its well hidden.
T — Tastes initially sweet and chocolaty, then goes quickly into a large lacto sourness, finishes a little salty, but its really just a bit of a mess. Seems like they tried to brew something else, then tried to salvage it when it didn't turn out.
M — Light in body, though a bit rich for being a sour.
O — OK overall, just really seems as though they tried to brew a chocolate stout, screwed it up completely, pitched lacto and salt and called it a chocolate gose.

The beer pours a muddled brown with a tight-knit off-white head that laces. The nose is rich with roasty cocoa, not much else. The taste has the same roastiness, but finishes tart with a little salted chocolate as well. There's minimal funk or citrus, but the bitterness builds in the finish as it warms. It's light bodied, well carbed, and drinkable, similar to if a gose was blended with a roasty porter. Best part of this beer is the subtle salt-cocoa play in the finish - pretty average, but unique.
