Hazy sunrise orange with a very thin, bubbly white blanket, this one's quite sour but still a tasty summer refresher, with flavors of apricot, orange and hints of wheat and lactic tartness via a thick body and semi-dry finish.

It's hard to mess up an apricot beer as long as it uses real fruit. Into a goblet.
A - Holy damn this beer explodes with a glass full of foam which baffles the mind since nobody else mentioned over carbonation. Beer itself is a semi hazy bright yellow with the foam making for great lacing.
S - Slightly sour and salts gose smells semi mild with apricot and some stone fruit.
T - Not getting much actual apricot which in my experience is very sweet. Tones of lactic sweetness, semi sour lemon rind and finish is somewhat wheaty. Not bad as an overall sour when I want sweet...
M - Crisp light somewhat watery decent gose.

Overall a sure fire cure for the sour beer need but nothing but under ripe apricot and salty sour goseness. Decent beer overall.

This beer is awesome! Love it! The smell is fruity, sour, sweetness. The taste follows, fruit. Sour, salt. Really balanced and really good.

Can at share. Pale yellow, relatively flat, dull pour. Big fruity nose, sweet, taste too. Kind of tart. Nice apricot flavors. Lingers for quite awhile.

Sour like no other. This beer carries the apricot forward to add to the bitterness. Highly carbonated and has lots of pucker affect. Clean and crisp, with the kick in the rear to wake up the senses.

a really excellent gose, intense in the right ways, which for me are saltiness and sourness. this somehow got lost in my fridge for several months, and i have to imagine the apricot may have faded some, although i have no way of knowing now. its awesome all these evil twin beers are coming around. i like the wording on the can too, sometimes evil twin nails the social commentary as well as they do the beer! milky pale yellow in appearance, somewhat thin, but bubbly and under a pretty rising white head, looks good in my angular wine glass. the aroma is nice, slightly sweet from the fruit, but wheaty for sure, loads of fresh coriander, sharp lemon, clean lactic sourness, and heaps of mouthwatering juiciness, smells hoppy sort of too, lots of brine and minerals. excellent taste too, i love how forward the salt is, one of the saltier goses i have had in a little while, and very sour too, but its clean and dry. the apricot is an accent, nice with the floral elements in here and the coriander seed. lightly peppery, highly citrusy, but tidy and with the salt drying it out even more at the end, iron and iodine there too. really great carbonation, frothy from the wheat, and darn sour too, but i could still slam a few of these back. it would be cool if the did the whole alphabet with different adjuncts...
