Appearance - Pours a hazy gold with two fingers of bubbly white head.
Smell - spicy earthy hops, lemon, coriander, sea salt, bready malts, hint of fruity esters, floral aromas, and earthy yeast.
Taste - spicy earthy hops upfront then quickly goes into the lemon, coriander, and sea salt. The floral aromas, hint of fruity esters follow suit. The bready malts and earthy yeast finish off the brew.
Mouthfeel - Medium bodied with moderate to high carbonation. Finishes tart and sticky with the malts and floral elements lingering.
Overall - A crushable gose from the folks at Yukon. The floral aspect of the elderflower is done well but I wish there was a touch more salt to make it more of a stand out. Nonetheless, an enjoyable brew.

473ml can - a kettle-soured ale with coriander. The last white wine I made had dried elderflowers in it, curious to see how it works here.
This beer pours a slightly hazy, pale golden straw colour, with four fingers of puffy, finely foamy, and somewhat creamy bone-white head, which leaves a bit of low-lying streaky lace around the glass as it quickly blows off.
It smells of gritty and grainy cereal malt, a strong musky floral character, muddled domestic citrus rind, some coriander and black pepper spiciness, and faint estery yeasty notes. The taste is grainy and crackery pale malt, more dirty florals, still indistinct generic citrus peel, semi-sweet coriander, and some ethereal herbal, musty, and dead grassy hoppiness.
The carbonation is average in its palate-satiating frothiness, the body a decent medium weight, and mostly smooth, with just a touch of floral acridity maybe not making nice with the neighbourhood kids at this particular juncture. It finishes off-dry, the malt and elderflower locked in a lingering pas-de-deux.
Overall - this is a pleasantly rendered version of the style, with the guest flower ingredient doing well enough to not overstep its bounds. I'm not getting much in the way of the purported saltiness, but that's ok, I can still enjoy the rest of this without it.
