Commercial Description:
Leipziger Gose is a top-fermenting wheat beer {60% wheat, 40% barley malt} with coriander, salt, and lactic acid bacteria added in the boil. It is a 4.6% alc/vol eclectic beer whose name evokes a close relationship to the renowned Lambic/Geuze breweries in the Valley Senne nearby Brussels, Belgium.

On tap at HDG. Part 3 of an indetemerinate length ratings miniseries entitled "Getting back beastiefan2k’s buddyship." A very cloudy pale yellow brew with a slight bit of head. Aroma full of coriander with a hint of lactic tartness. Taste very much echoes the aroma. The light tartness is very welcome. Couldn’t quite dig out the salt that was in the description, though I’m not sure if that’s a bad thing. Has a light, spritzy mouthfeel, great for these summer months. An interesting beer for sure, and I must say, a good one.

Tap @ HDG 2nd Anniversary. Poured into a 7 oz goblet. Color is a very murky, deep, thick yellow with no clarity. Amazing how a color like this could hide so much of the beer. Small head faded into nothingness and made the beer look absolutely dead. Aroma was strong, particularly on the lemon aspect.with a light tartness. Taste definitely had a salty aspect, seemed like mineral-saltiness. Plenty of lemon in there and a tea-like aspect (damn you JoeMcPhee, its got to be coriander). Its a very light and refreshing beer yet far from watery. Feels very nice on the cheeks, present but not overbearing. The tartness peppered throughout the beer is not acidic at all. Very quaffable and if I could get fresh bottles of this I would probably drink it all summer long.

16.9oz bottle. Hazy orange-golden with a moderate off-white head. Really nice spice, lemon, yeast, earth, caramel and honey aroma. Flavor is a bit disappointing based on the aroma. Malt, spice, yeast and orange up front, with a dry, lactic finish. Yeasty and thin bodied. Really unique.

On tap @ Coles Buffalo NY. Strange brew. sweet, sour, citrusy. Almost white wine-ish. Hard to describe. Salt flavor not as evident as description would lead you to believe.

Bottle; poured a clear, orange-amber with smallish white head. Aroma of salt, citrus and and caramel. Really different flavor and palate combination. Medium body with high carbonation. Flavor was salty, but not a turn off in itself. Strong malt flavor; mostly caramel and honey. A little tartness, but not too strong. Dry finish. Don’t have too strong of feelings either away; not bad, but not something I’d actively seek out again.

(Bottle) Pours a clear golden body with a moderate off-white head. Aroma of saltiness, dust, florals, and light citrus. Flavor of malt, coriander, light salt (not as bad as feared), and mild hops.

This beer is like a first attempt at a White Ale. bit of tangy of flavors of orange and lemon peel. The malts and hops are very second nature. over all it gives me a familar feeling of something old.

The aroma is sour and acidic with yeast, honey, grapes, and wheat. The appearance is cloudy gold with a medium head. The flavor is like the aroma but also salty and a little spicy. The palate is thin with a dry finish. I guess this is a little refreshing but not a great tasting beer. Bizarre beer but cool bottle.
