Tranentrekker

Tap to rate

Lightly sour, sunny and salty as a classic gose should be, with a tropical turn from fermented pineapple: fresh, fruity and intense enough to touch you. Tranentrekker, Dutch for tearjerker, belongs to the Stereo Series, a run of approachable beers inspired by music. It is brewed with wheat, wheat flakes, salt and pineapple, hopped with Columbus and Perle, at 4.0% ABV.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with bright pineapple notes from the fermented fruit, layered over a subtle wheat character and a mineral saltiness that recalls the sea. Below the tropical fruit sits a restrained herbal tone from Columbus and Perle hops, with no aggressive alpha acid bite. The overall impression is fresh, crisp, and distinctly inviting.

◐ Taste

The palate leads with a bright sourness and immediate tropical fruit intensity, the pineapple character persisting through the mid-palate with good presence. Salt and wheat form the structural backbone, adding depth and a gentle drying quality without heaviness. Bitterness remains low and integrated, allowing the sour-fruity profile to dominate the finish.
