And so Gose the Summer...

Admittedly I was a bit apprehensive about trying a Gose (Go-zuh), as I'm not a fan of sours, but after reading the article below I was tempted enough to get a 6-pack of Six Point Jammer to try during a trip to the beach.  (I've found you can never go wrong with a Six Point.)

As a first try of a Gose, I thought Jammer was a terrific introduction and represented the style well.  Jammer was light (4.5 ABV), a bit spicy, a bit salty, a bit sweet.  I enjoyed it to start the on-beach happy hour and while tending the grill.  The taste was different, but enjoyable - a welcome step out from the traditional beach wheat.  

If you're looking for an IPA or a traditional beer you'll be disappointed.  If you're looking to try something different, light, with a complex flavor profile, you'll be satisfied with a smile.

Prost.
