Cherry Lime Rickey Gose has a great mix of heavy cherry flavors, supported by a nice, sharp acidity compliments of the key lime, and the classic sour and subtle salty flavors of a traditional German-style Gose. Aromas of tart cherry coupled with a playful lime zest character lead to a fruit-forward beer with balanced acidity. It’s a great beer for the warm days of summer.

Poured from the can into a wheat ale glass.

Pale dark orange and red body color, with a very good sized frothy off white tall head. Head reaches a solid three fingers, and has some surprising staying power for a gose.

Briney like aromas hit the nose nicely, with touches of small salt quality. Very faint hint of fruited cherry, with more of a citrus and zesty quality that's quite large on the lime. Hints quite a bit of oily like zest as well.

Palate continues some of the trend. Solid base gose style, with a good malt backbone and a hint of chewy texture. Brings some good salty to briney like qualities, but with some unusual character. Hints quite a bit of oily zest but a little indistinguishable. There's some odd spicy quality to this almost a little cinnamon to nutmeg like, perhaps gingerbread.

Solid gose, but doesn't really have this cherry quality coming through as much as I anticipated.
