Collaboration with J Wakefield Brewing Company
This Key Lime Pie inspired Gose absolutely shines with fresh key lime flavor from adding over 1000lbs of it to the beer. Color is exactly like the middle of a key lime with tart notes of key lime with a bit of saltiness on the back end is followed by a rounded note of vanilla and graham cracker. Over 300lbs of graham cracker and 50lbs of vanilla helps the key lime pie character really came through. Finish is slightly dry with a tingling of key lime on the pallet. Imagine key lime pie in a glass.

It is infrequent that I would comment on a beer's appearance as being interesting. Here we have a beer that starts out milky yellow with cascading carbonation that builds three inches of fine, white head. The head, though brief, turns rocky as it completely evaporates, leaving no lace. One is untimately left with a golden yellow opaque beer just as described by the brewer. A Stiegl stange was well-suited to display the uniqueness described here.
This smells remarkably similar to lemon curd. There is something very odd which is difficult to pin down and, while not prominent, neither is it subtle. There is nothing off-putting, just odd. Like maybe an artificial lemon?
YIKES! This is a tart Gose. My grandmother never served key lime pie like this. Wow, it really knocks one's socks off. There is a ton of lime, lots of lemon too. Hey, what do you know. Once the atomic tart bomb is just a mushroom cloud, a whopping dose of graham cracker follows. The finish is long and strong, just like lemon curd.
This beer has a dense body, similar to pear nectar. It is also soft and smooth. Some alcohol and light carbonation, oh, and did I mention mouth-puckering tartness that makes one wonder whether they will ever be able to breathe again?
Aside from a passing thought of reprimand for calling this a Gose, the beer is highly enjoyable. Mind you, no human, or creature from the planet earth for that matter, would dare drink two in a row. However, getting past the masochistic presence of tartness, this is a fun beer. Don't bother preparing yourself for the experience, because the only way to understand is to take a few sips, then, IF you recover, consider yourself initiated in a weird club. This may well be the strangest beer I've every tried. And I am sooooo glad I did!
