Fruit Punch Gose
K2 Brothers Brewing

5 oz mini-snifter pour at the brewery. Looks like Hawaiian fruit punch in the glass - bright almost neon red. Aroma and flavor feature cherry and some pineapple with a hint of wheat. Maybe some strawberry and salt as well. The fruit flavors are more muted than I expected. Overall, it manages to be distinctly different from the other 8 fruited kettle sours I tried, but it's not one of the better ones.

Translucent pinkish-orange, with slight, quickly-dissipating light pink head.

Smell is mostly dried raspberry, lactic sourness, and the typical gose "fresh ocean breeze" aroma. As the head dissipates, and it warms, there is some cherry and strawberry. Not that of the fresh fruit, but closer to maraschino cherry, and strawberry jam.

Taste follows the nose pretty closely, but less sweet, with the cherry more towards sour cherry, as is common in many beers with cherry. Not getting the pineapple or fruit punch specifically . There is a very slight bit of bread crust (malt) flavor that come in towards the middle, then quickly disappears. Light pleasant bitterness.

Feel is light, as would be expected, with moderate, very,very fine carbonation tingle , that lingers on the tongue awhile.

Overall, enjoyable , and worth a try. Not generally a fan of fruit in beers, but do like it sometimes in sour styles. This is one of them. Not sure that all of the additions are necessary, but they don't detract from it either, so it works.
