Historical recreation of a german Gose Original from Goslar.
With spruce twigs, cinnamon, wormwood and salt.
Like it. Smells like spruce and taste like a salty Gose.

@Aetas every beer I have had that used spruce/pine needles has been awesome. Don't ask me why but I love it.

Neph thanks for translating. I didn’t see pine needles on that label.
Scooter keep an eye out for Civil Society. We just got our first drop in Maryland.
Both are very good

Thought I'd take a flyer on this, but it was underwhelming.

That looks interesting. How was it?

I quite liked it. I'm just getting started, when it comes lambics and the american versions thereof, though. If pressed for a description, I'd say, I liken it to a somewhat funky, earthy, sour, overripened pear. I was able to get my hands on a bottle of 3F. I'll be enjoying that on Thanksgiving Day. It'll be interesting to get a greater sense of the style...
