Umm. Wow. Don’t expect typical gose. Sticky. Super-tequila barrel making a winter ale out of a gose. Unique. Heavy. Manages beach-y AND 10%!

Matthew C. is drinking a Borage 2018 by Propolis Brewing at Engine House No. 9
A solid 4 for Propolis, a 4.5 or so for the style. Not their best, a little lighter in flavor and mouthfeel, but delightfully tart.

Matthew C. is drinking an Omega Man IPA by E9 Brewing Co. at Engine House No. 9
A delicious hazy. A light to medium mouthfeel for the style, but well-balanced if a little aggressively carbonated.

I dig it, a light farmhouse, it leans neither earthy/herbal nor citrusy, but I am drinking it w/ some other more potent beers.

Apricot is fairly understated, but it grows on you, especially as it warms. Give it time. (In middle).

A bit of a bite; quite tasty, but kind of wish it had lived in the barrel just a bit longer.

Matthew C. is drinking a Like Cardio by MIRAGE at The Brewmaster's Taproom
Totally weird; almost like a gose ipa. Hazy and fruity up front, Tart in the back end. No saltiness like a gose, so the hazy stays true.

Matthew C. is drinking an Apollo by Twice Brewed Brew House at Twice Brewed Inn
Hmm; had that stale beer taste, despite coming from the brew house and on cask. Maybe I’m spoiled or my tastebuds are off. (Middle)

Solid. A little more prickly than expected, but that’s what you get for presupposition! A little boozy but true to style with an edge.
