Infrared Alert reimagines the traditional Gose as a vibrant, fruit-forward experience, amplified by its modern 6.5% ABV strength. This collaboration pours with a striking depth, driven by a lush trifecta of cranberry, raspberry, and blueberry. The aroma is an intense bouquet of jammy forest fruits and bright lactic tartness, underpinned by a subtle, sea-salt minerality and soft wheat. On the palate, the sharp acidity of the cranberries and raspberries cuts through a doughy malt base, while the blueberry adds a rounded, earthy sweetness. A faint whisper of coriander provides a spicy lift, leading to a crisp, mouthwatering finish where the salt creates a savory, thirst-quenching balance against the rich berry profile.
Appearance.Deep magenta to ruby red (SRM 25–30); tall, pink-tinted head with moderate retention and light lacing; opaque and hazy due to significant fruit additions and wheat content.
Aroma.High intensity of fresh raspberry and tart cranberry, with a secondary sweet blueberry note; low bready wheat malt; moderate lactic sourness; faint spicy coriander and a clean, saline mineral quality; no hop aroma.
Taste.Initial impression is sharply tart and intensely fruity; prominent flavors of jammy raspberry and acidic cranberry; moderate bready wheat malt flavor provides a soft foundation; very low hop bitterness; noticeable salt character on the mid-palate enhances the fruit; dry, fully-attenuated finish with lingering berry skin and bright acidity.
Mouthfeel.Medium body with a slightly rounder texture from the fruit and higher alcohol content; high carbonation; effervescent and tingly; subtle alcohol warmth; low astringency with a mouthwatering, saline-driven finish.
