12 fl oz pull-tab can:
"Plum gose." 6% ABV.
Head quickly dissipates. Body is a semibright pinkish red colour...it doesn't look great but the impact of the plum fruit on its colour is evident.
AROMA: Faint salt. Plum/stonefruit. Mild bacterial (lactobacillus) sourness and lactic acidity. A bit tangy, sure, but I don't detect any butyric acid or other off-notes.
I don't detect any coriander as one would expect in a proper gose. The plum doesn't pop the way fruit in better smelling fruited gose biere does, but I'm optimistic going in...
TASTE & TEXTURE: Smacky acidic sourness from obvious lactobacillus cultures is the first thing I notice along with the fruit flavour. It's not recognizably plum but I think I could narrow it down to the stonefruit family if I tried this in in a blind tasting. The salt is subtle and I get no coriander at all.
Sourness isn't very intense...maybe a 4 out of 10. Acidity is about the same.
Lacks the briney sea salt sort of advanced salt flavour you find in really great gosen.
Smooth, wet, somewhat refreshing despite its acidity, light to medium-bodied, well-carbonated.
Has no off-flavours or faults (e.g. butyric acid).
OVERALL: A balanced and worthwhile gose for what it is even if it doesn't really deliver as much as it should in terms of plum or bacterial complexity. I'd sooner buy out-of-state expressions of the style available in the same market (New Orleans has access to a fair amount of good U.S. brewed gosen at around the same price) but it's a nice little fruited gose that beats the likes of Southern Prohibition's Icebox and local competition from Port Orleans, Miel, or Urban South.
Certainly worth picking up a sixer of at $9.49 USD plus tax.
