This German Style Gose soured with pinot noir grapes (the oldest grape variety in the world dating back to the first century, when the Romans enjoyed them) is a beautiful rose color with the wonderful aroma of tart berries and currants that that entice your palette to take a sip. It is tart, but not overly sweet as it is balanced nicely with the sea salt. Flavors of black cherry, strawberry, savory spice and everything nice is what makes this Gose the perfect drink Anytime, Anywhere, Any weather.

The Lighthouse on the front of this can is The New London Ledge Lighthouse in Groton, Connecticut on the Thames River at the mouth of the New London Harbor. It is near the Groton Sub base and it is a reporting point for submariners. It is also said that this light house is haunted.

A: The beer is relatively clear red in color and has a light amount of visible carbonation. It poured with a narrow collar of off white bubbles around the edge of the glass and a patch of bubbles on the surface.
S: Moderate aromas of grapes and cherries are present in the nose.
T: The taste follows the smell and has more flavors of cherries than those of the grapes. There is a light bit of sourness.
M: It feels nearly medium-bodied and a bit creamy on the palate and has a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer is more fruitier than it is sour but has an interesting mix of cherries and grapes in the taste.
