Ballast Point Citrus Cove Gose

Ballast Point Citrus Cove Gose. Lemon-lime session ale.
4.2 % ABV. 5 IBU.
Ballast Point Brewing, San Diego, CA.

Clear, dull yellow, slim head.

In the nose: Loud lemon and lime. Outsized sourness. Bright and citrus-y.

In the mouth: Tart. Citrusy. Big ol' lemon and lime. Slightly salty. Simple, but does the job. If you want a nice, light citrusy ale, you can't go wrong here at all.

I'd love to say more, but there's nothing more to say.

I'll let this guy say it: Citrus Cove captures the salty spray of an ocean wind mingled with a bright tropical character that begs one refreshing sip after the other. Crisp, lemon citrus acidity leads the way to a nice, dry, salt and lime zest finish. The result is a surprisingly fresh take on the classic Gose style, turning all hours into happy hour.

Town Hall Tangerine Reflections

Town Hall Tangerine Reflections. 5.5% ABV. American Pale Ale. Minneapolis Town Hall Brewery, Minneapolis, MN.

Clear, bright golden color, slim white head.

In the nose: bright, citrus-y, sweet, lightly bitter. Soft, not too harsh, never too bitter.

In the mouth: Big citrus, big bitter. Full-on fruity, tons of beautiful hop bitterness. Sweetness, slickness, easy-drinking, smooth mouthfeel, tasty.

Fulton All-City Cosmic Stallion Citrus Wheat Ale

Fulton All-City Cosmic Stallion Citrus Wheat Ale. Fulton Beer, Minneapolis, MN. 5.3% ABV, 25 IBU.

Clear, bright golden hue, slim white head.

In the nose: Flowery, citrus-y, largely lemon-y. Nice.

In the mouth: Mild bitterness. Light body. Extreme smoothness. Extravagant drinkability. Citrus flavor pops out. A little touch of spice, hops. Otherwise, uncomplicated. Goes down easy.
Perfect brew for summer heat. Like, now.

We brewed this citrus wheat ale in partnership with our longtime friends and collaborators at All-City Cycles. The name and package design pay tribute to All-City's top of the line all-road / endurance cycle, Cosmic Stallion. The beer is similarly versatile: the wheat forward body is punctuated by notes of lemon and lime zest, with kettle and dry hop character provided by Galaxy, Summer, and Nelson Sauvin. The flavors come together for a bright, easy-drinking beer that's flavorful yet refreshing --  making the Cosmic Stallion the embodiment of summer in a can. Ride on!
