    Jammer is like the AAA prospect that needs another season in the minors before getting called up. Westbrook Gose being the perennial All Star, future Hall of Famer

    Got a sample can from a Sixpoint rep and tried it last night. I hate sours/salt/gose styles so I didn't know what to expect.

    I enjoyed it. No sourness to it which is great. Smooth, not really salty, and I liked the coriander finish. Good beer to have on a hot day. Good job again Sixpoint.

    Tried my first one. Very mild in all areas, but I get a bit of each component. I liked the tartness of Victory's gose, but this one went down easier. Not bad at all.

    I disagree with the analogy but, to each their own. I think Westbrook Gose is a fine beer, however, Sixpoint is not trying to make Jammer the same as Westbrook Gose. If they wanted to, they definitely could. Jammer is a much more subtle and refined experience. Can it be fine tuned, absolutely, but as @Sixpoint has said, it was not created with the intent to make your face pucker.

    Two different beers and drinking experiences, both of which I enjoy for what they are.

    We will! More jammer on the way...

    yup, constantly tweaking things...the day we stop, is the day we die!

    let us know how it Gose! :-)

    and that was exactly the intent! And would you have been able to do that if it was a sour/salt bomb?

    yup, expectation management is the key here...

    did you drink the beer from the can?

    more subtlety, finesse, balance.

    We used to make a Gose like the ones you mentioned a few years ago - we just evolved from there ;-)

    Or the one jacked up on roids ;-)

    thanks man!

    looks like a solid beach companion...

    We already did the sour/salt bomb (been there, done that) many years ago. So we decided to take things in a different direction. Thanks for noticing!

    how did you like it?

    Sixpoint killed it! It is an excellent beer. I wish I had picked up more than just a six pack. I may have to go back. I'm really liking the coriander and slight salinity. I love sixpoint. Never even had one mediocre beer. Every release is awesome. Sounds fan boyish maybe but IMo I can rely on sixpoint for high quality beer

    I fell in love with Hi-Res,Plain Res and Bengali, and now seeing how cool Shane is @Sixpoint on here;ISO:Sixpoint indefinitely. My money will always go to the good guys over say someone *cough* at Alpine.

    My local bottleshop owner tells me Shangy won't allow him to order any Sixpoint products. Says they won't send any further north or west of the Allentown area.

    I love Sixpoint, but I have to say that I was disappointed by this and I'm sad to say that I would not reach for this again. Not enough salt or sour for me. Worst Sixpoint beer I've had.

    For an easily accessible gose, I'm really loving Victory Kirsch
