Cucumber & Lime Gose

Tap to rate

Pale and hazy, brewed with cucumber and lime alongside the salt the style calls for. Fresh cucumber dominates the aroma, green and herbal, with lime zest cutting across it. The salinity is light but present, and the wheat base keeps the body soft. Tart and quick to finish, with the vegetal note lasting longer than the acidity.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with the soft wheat base delivering a gentle sweetness that grounds the beer's structure. Tart acidity and briny salinity develop in the mid-palate, creating a balanced tension between the herbal cucumber notes and crisp lime. The finish is quick and clean, with residual vegetable character lingering pleasantly.
