When you go to the Disgruntled Brewing website, the first words that pop on your computer screen are these: "the more disgruntled the brewer, the better the beer." What does that mean now? How disgruntled can your brewer be, and still brew? The disgruntled Disgruntled brewer, Brett Doebbelling, has left the brewery that he was part owner of, saying that he was "squeezed out" by his partners, and has stepped down. His talent, though, was what brought them acclaim and made them successful. Where do they do from here? More importantly, where does he go? We're waiting to see. Meanwhile, I'll keep reviewing the crowlers when I see them.
Disgruntled Punch Drunk. Fruited sour gose. 5% ABV. Disgruntled Brewing Co., Perham, MN.
Clear, bright and rosy coloration, with a pinkish head that starts big and slips down quickly.
In the nose: Very berry, with the accompanying tell-tale signs of a proper Gose, the sour, the wheat, the salt. It's all there. Nice.
In the mouth: Tart! Then fruity, and quickly comes the wheat, and the salt, and more tart. Light bodied, very drinkable, quite refreshing. I like it. Sour never quits, berry flavor is a delight. Tastes right, drink right...right on!
A Gose made with magical anti-aging aronia berries. Very refreshing!
