Foggy pale straw yellow with a creamy but uneven thick blanket settling out to a collar that leaves all kinds of thick cobweb lacing on the glass.

First presenting with a little more funk than your standard modern gose, a certain character of water vegetation adds a welcome bit of complexity to what's otherwise become a ubiquitously bland style. This is then uplifted by a lightly tart touch of Sweet Tarts and a bit of biscuit before a colby exhale.

The moderate body has a soft froth and finishes semi-dry.

I enjoyed this more than the fruited version--a first in a long time.

On tap at the brewery

Mostly clear dull gold with a big, bright white soapy head that’s a bit fizzy. M

Smells sour against a strong grainy background.

Just a little bit of salinity up front and then the sourness quickly transitions into a strong wheat flavor and has a lingering grain taste. A bit of apple or pear like fruit too.

Body is fairly well carbonated but has a pretty soft feel.

If you are looking for a super sour, or overly fruited Gose (American style) this isn’t it. This is a subtle, traditional Leipzig version more like Sixpoint Jammer. And an excellent one.
