I've had this a few times, cans, draft etc. . . Called "Gose in Your Mouth" sometimes.

Pours a cloudy yellow color with 1/3" white head. The aroma is light on the salinity, and rather than being German in heritage, this one smells of a yeast that comes of more Belgian, the clove and phenolic push.

The taste leans back into the regular Germanic tradition giving a light salty presence, but it still is competing upside a weird non gose like yeast, again mostly Belgian feels out of it. It has the relative dryness on the back end, so basically the beer keeps going more in the gose direction after the initial impact was non gose esque. Still has a light body, the alcohol level is a bit above style, but it doesn't really impact anything seeming too hot or strong. Pick a traditional yeast already and this is a pretty good beer. Its decent, but when you skirt the tradition, you better come as good or better, for here, we have a changeup that didn't pop off.
