Ballast Point Brewing Co. Citrus Cove Gose
What the brewers say
“Captures the salty spray of an ocean wind mingled with a bright tropical character.”
What our panel thought
“Lovely citrus-peel aroma of grapefruit, lime, and orange peel. A touch pithy in flavor, with some light black pepper, lime, and more citrus notes. Acidity well-balanced, with high drinkability. Finishes clean with some light pith. Very light minerality. Finishes with a tad too much salt.”
What our editors thought
“Herbal lemon-lime tea with a bright undercurrent of fresh-squeezed lime juice on the nose. The sip sacrifices some expected citrus sharpness to a paunchy malt body with a kick of lime in the finish.”
