Gose 7.5 º

Põhjala

This Imperial Gose presents a bold, modern interpretation of the historical style, amplified by an elevated alcohol content and deep forest fruits. Luscious aromas of ripe blueberries and tangy honeyberries lead the sensory experience, supported by the floral, herbal complexity of heather honey. On the palate, a vibrant lactic acidity cuts through the medium-full body, while a delicate salinity provides a mouthwatering counterpoint to the rich berry depth. The finish is remarkably crisp yet lingering, showcasing a harmonious balance between tart fruit skins and earthy honey notes, making for a refreshing yet intense drinking experience.

Appearance. Deep magenta to purple hue (20+ SRM); thick, pink-tinted head with moderate retention; opaque and unfiltered appearance with visible fruit density.

Aroma. High intensity; dominant notes of tart honeyberry and jammy blueberry; distinct floral and herbal heather honey character; underlying bready wheat malt and a hint of clean lactic sourness; no hop aroma.

Taste. Initial burst of sharp, refreshing lactic acidity; rich fruit flavors of blueberry skins and tangy berries; the heather honey adds a floral, earthy complexity that softens the tartness; light but noticeable salt character enhances the fruit perception; very low bitterness; finish is dry and mouthwatering with a lingering berry tartness.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body, notably rounder than a standard version; moderate to high carbonation; noticeable alcohol warmth due to the 7.5% ABV; slight tingly sensation from the salt.
