    Anyone care to point me in the right direction to find Anderson valley's gose? All my usual shops don't have it! Preferably in or around Orange County. Thanks!

    Total Wine but it does sell out relatively quick.

    Grabbed a 6pk of the blood orange at BevMo, regular there as well. This was in SD so I would guess it is near you as well being more north.

    Awesome, thanks guys. I don't know why I always forget to check the most obvious places. I always assume the dusty bottle shops have better options. Looks like I know where I will spend my lunch break tomorrow haha

    The six pack I bought was awfully diacetly, one of the worst beers I ever had.

    I've had this multiple items and no trace of butter, have not heard about infection from anybody else either. I thought it had a nice blood orange citrus element with some moderate saltiness

    Pretty much the same here, never had a problem with it and I think this is either my 3rd or 4th 6pk I have purchased.

    I've never had any issues with it and in fact I like it a lot more than the regular gose.

    Ok, so there is hope. Now just need to find some. I have hard enough times just trying to get cans of the regular one.

    Interesting. I've gone through several 6 packs of both and not had any issue. Same with everyone else I know. Great beer.

    I thought the Blood Orange was great. Loved it before, during, and after some yard work.

    Blood Orange is crazy sessionable. Like, Orange Crush soda sessionable... no diacetyl issues when I recently had it.

    Agree with this. Blood Orange Gose is my favorite orange soda.

    I love the fact that this is like 9.99 a six pack. Every other Gose out there is so much more expensive. Almanac's, for instance, is like 8.99 a bomber. Great beer, but I'll take Anderson Valley all day long at that price point.

    And OP, be sure to check your local Whole Foods.

    I very much enjoyed the B.O. Gose. I find it a lot better than the regular Kimmie/Yink Gose.

    I got no off flavors at all. Really good beer!

    I'm in the minority and like the original better. BO tastes like regular with orange torani syrup. Not bad at all, just prefer the original.

    I too prefer the regular. The blood orange version is just a little too "soda-y." Is that a word?
