Squeegee Master is light-bodied and refreshing. Inspired by traditional German Gose, Squeegee Master showcases balanced salinity and a characterful coriander flavor throughout. Bright brine and a lemony-tart flavor hit your pallet immediately and linger pleasantly. This is one beer that begs you to take another sip with a pretty awesome back story.

6 oz draft pour. For a gose, this has more bitterness and hop character than I look for. Some nice citrus notes, hint of wheat and salinity, but overall it's not quite what I was expecting with the hoppiness. It came across more like a hoppy pale wheat ale.

Appearance: Pale gold, small white head, sparce lacing.
Aroma: Tart fruit and mild spiciness floating over grainy malts.
Taste: Acidic and tart but not terribly sour as the wheat adds balance and depth.
Mouthfeel: Light-to-medium bodied; well carbonated. Lingering, slightly bitter finish.
Overall: Crisp and dry with a good dose of pucker-power.

Poured from the can into a tulip glass.
Very nice clear orange to lemon body, with some good amounts of carbonation. Pours out with a minor gush, but controls a big frothy white head out of the can, and a thick but small retention collar. Good chunk lacing and tall crown too, real nice looking gose.
Base aroma is pretty much straightforward. Good sensing chewy malt on the nose, a little bit of sourness and a touch of lime zest and briney character as well. What a basic gose should smell like.
Palate stays pretty simple. Chewy sensing flavors of wheat with a good bakery density. Parching and mineral light body, but with a hint of malt sweetness just barely accenting a good tartness and salty flavor. Aftertaste is real impressive. A good fresh bakery oven bread finish, mixing in with some of the nice briney salty quality as well. Flirts with a little bit orange and lemon flavors also.
Just a real solid gose, wish people would make them like this.

Lively pour with a big white head, pale golden color, slightly hazy
Aroma is delicate, soft lemony fruit kind of aroma (from coriander?), slight hint of tartness in the nose.
Has a slightly tart lemon kind of flavor, and a definite presence of salt. Finishes fairly dry, tart and salty.
Light mouthfeel and fairly high carbonation - definitely seems like the most highly carbonated canned beer I've had from this brewery. Mouthfeel seems perfect to me - scrubs the palate and prepares for the next sip.
Can't say I'm an expert on the style or a huge fan of the style, but this definitely hits the style highlights. Feel like this one came out in late summer or early fall - definitely is a beer for the heat of summer.
