Anderson Valley Brewing Co. Framboise Rose Gose
What the brewers say
“By adding rose hips to the boil and fresh raspberry puree at the end of fermentation, this...is a mélange of flavors and aromas.”
What our panel thought
“Muddled raspberry and dried red chilies dominate the nose. First impression was raspberry seltzer cut with a bit of lime. A hint of salt in the last bit of flavor—like the watery salt from an almost-empty margarita.”
What our editors thought
“A fleshy, slightly sweaty nose with just a hint of berry. The sip was surprisingly dry in that fermented-out raspberry way, finishing pretty down-the-middle. Predictable, safe, unassuming.”
