    Used to be:
    1.Döllniter Ritterguts Gose
    2. Bayerischer Bahnhof
    3. Braustelle
    4.Bierzauberei(Power Gose and Hexenritt Gose)
    5. Ale Mania
    Since Döllnitzer changed the brewery, the first two places swapped. It's still very food, but not as amazing anymore.

    Lately I have been drinking a lot of Lost Nation and Geyser Gose.

    While I see some votes for Troublesome, that was definitely not the one for me. I would have to say Grimm Super Spruce was my favorite.

    Gose Gone Wild. I also enjoyed a Cigar City gose with lime and agave. Westbrook is a classic as well.

    Westbrook on the SC beach in July is about as good as it gets.

    I agree 100%. I pretty much always have both in my fridge.

    Not a big Gose fan but Westbrook was really good.

    Probably Westbrook but Lost Nation is up there. I have a Gose Gone Wild waiting in the wings so I'm excited about that one.

    I really enjoy the Andersen Valley cans during the heat of a hot St. Louis summer.

    I've only had 2 or 3. I like them so far.

    Does anyone know of a Gose that's still salty, still has that wheat bite, with creamy mouthfeel, but doesn't use flavored syrups? I understand that's part of the style, but I'd like to try one without the use of them.

    Victory had a Cherry Gose? that I found to be quite intriguing.

    I've had 4 that were new to me in the last 4-5 months that were all very good, but none of them are particularly traditional:

    Perennial Suburban Beverage
    Prairie Flare
    deGarde Nelson Hose
    Crane Brewing Orange Gose (this might be the best of the bunch)

    Transmitter's G4 was damn good but I'd have to say Westbrook. I was a big fan of Lost Nation for a while but it's not funky enough, that being said the version the dry hopped with Citra and grapefruit peel was delicious.

    It seems like you are confusing Berliner Weisse and Gose. BW is traditionally blended with a sweet syrup at bars in Germany. I would say that is rare in America, particularly in packaged beer.

    If I have it confused, then so does Beer Advocate:

    http://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/style/16/

    "Like Berliner Weisse beers, a Gose will sometimes be laced with various flavored and colored syrups. This is to balance out the addition of lactic acid that is added to the boil. "
