Sierra Nevada adds a new beer to its available year round line up and that they chose a gose style beer is a testimony to the strength of the sour beer trend in the U.S. As is tradition in gose beers, this is based from part malt and part wheat. The sourness from the lactobacillus is aided by the addition of tangy prickly pear cactus. I am generally not a fan of brewers putting things into my beer no matter how historically based the idea might be, but this was so well integrated, I would have never picked it out as having any additives. Well done Sierra Nevada. The acidity is incredibly refreshing and at only 4.5% alcohol it is light bodied enough to enjoy a few during a quaffing session.
