Don't get salty on Gose

Our first taste of Gose (pronounced GO-ZUH) was 15 years ago, in 2007. We were still operating out of a 1-room storeroom, 1-room office back then, in our 1st year of hobby business. A traditional German brewery had shipped two cases of Gose over. Because we started our craft beer journey few years before it became a business proper, we thought our palate was reasonably experienced & mature. We were familiar (and in love) with Flemish Red Ales, Lambics and smoked Imperial Stouts, pretty much the extreme end of beer flavours. Pretty much ALL the extreme flavours right? WRONG.

Gose tipped the extreme of extreme. It’s a German wheat beer with dominant saltiness and sourness, and that first taste was akin to drinking cold salted-veg soup that we find on the dinner table, or liquified potato chips. That first bottle took a while to empty and equally left a deep impression in both of us.

In recent years, sours have taken off in the craft beer universe. Customers were asking us for more because their customers couldn’t get enough. Gose has re-emerged as a popular style as well, riding along with this trend for sour beers. What we do notice however, is that the saltiness have tamped down, with more shine given to the sour than salty characteristic. Nonetheless, a very quaffable and delicious beer style, particularly suited for our tropical Singapore climate.
