Rod J Beer Review: Talking Samuel Adams Got to Gose

The Got to Gose from Samuel Adams is a 4.8% ABV Sour Ale
that is brewed using salt, coriander and also cucumber. It pours out a nice
golden orange color, which is illuminated nicely when held to the light. And
although there is a slight haze, the carbonation is easy to see as it streams
upward toward the white head that caps the beer. There is a spicy quality from
the Saez Hops that are used, as well as an earthiness created in the ale. There
is some bitterness up front which is then followed by a salty pickle taste on
the finish.

Check out the video to get my view on this beer.

Now I am not saying I will crack a 15% ABV in the middle of a hot summer day, but sitting out on a summer night having a nice stout and stogie is a pleasant exp...
