This lively gose brings the tart flavor of key lime pie, sprinkled with sea salt into a zesty sour lime bier.

Poured from a 12 oz can into a Dogfish Head tulip
L: Clear light golden pour with big fluffy white head. Solid lacing
S: Lime and citrus. Tart and crisp.
T/F: Light crackery grains.. tart without being overly sour. Salt and lime... strong citrus. Easy drinking... light bodied with good carbonation.
O: Overall a nice little gose. Nothing fancy, but good flavor and easy drinking with a tart bite. Great summer beer.

Brew is a very pale yellow, hazy and translucent, topped by a sizeable snow white head. Good retention.
Sour, slightly funky nose, featuring lime, melon, milk, and must. Something else not quite identifiable.
Very, very tart on the palate, with tons of very nice, organic key lime flavor! The gose sourness is really overwhelmed by the limes, and the salt is similarly present but overshadowed. Very light and natural sweetness.
Moderately puckering, smooth, oily, and lively. Drinks bigger than a 4.7% ABV brew.
This is a very nice and refreshing beer!

Poured from 12oz can into glass. Bottom of can is stamped 'ENJOY BY: 12 NOV 2018'.
Slightly cloudy, straw colored body. Thin fizzy head upon pouring disappears, leaving a couple of islands and a thin ring. No lacing.
Aroma is lime tart, with a whiff of salinity.
Taste is tart, veering toward sour, with lime, and some minor salinity.
Medium mouth feel. Good carbonation.
Sour refresher with strong lime flavors and the addition of salt. Tart and salty, and refreshing.

I am not sure I completely get the sour beer craze. I mean, you could just poor lime into your beer and it might come out the same. This was pretty good, but not complex in any way. It is salty, sour lime and that's about it. It was pretty tastey though.
