I shared one of these with my wife last night. It was too hoppy for her taste, but the light sour paired awesomely with the Citra for me.

Sofa King good.

This beer is so *$8&#$ing sour that you think you might not be able to handle it when it first hits you, but then somehow it settles down and finishes bready, and I think the salt calms it down a bit in the finish. It does have a very noticable vinegar like component mixed with the lemon/lime vibe - much more then the Berliner I drank yesterday, which was more straight up lemon. It's more intensely sour seeming because of it. It's acidic enough that it's giving me a bit of heartburn. I think the OG is a bit high for a Goze, and this gave the sour bugs more stuff to eat and do their thing with, which is why it's got the vinegary vibe. I think it would be better as a 4% beer. I think the IBUs might be a tad higher then I'd have put into such a beer as well. It's supposed to have some coriander, but I can't pick it out, it's buried under the intense lacto.

There is no restraint here, so if you can't handle a light sour, this is not your friend. I'm liking it with some salty chips in between sips. And I mean sips, I'm not drinking this fast. This is not a sour for someone who's never had one before. Every sip is like this... "Gah!!! Hmm... Yum? I don't know... yes I think so... so thank you sir may I have another."

I don't know that I'd buy this on a regular basis, but I'd drink it if someone handed it to me. It would be good to help digest fatty food for sure.

Imperial IPA after work, dry-hopped with Centennial & Chinook. This is one flavorful brew!

Did a Parish Envie Pale ale and Stone Coffee Milk Stout.
The Envie was ok. Quality beer but not one of my favorites
Stone Coffee Milk Stout was very good. However, it's more bitter coffee than the smooth style i like with Mystery Romp etc

Sierra Nevadas 2015 Oktoberfest. It's a collaboration brew with Brauhaus Riegele. And it's I think the best American brewed Oktoberfest I've ever had. If you have not tried it, do so.
