Ocean Drift Gooseberry Gose

A Scottish gooseberry gose brewed using a mixed yeast and bacteria culture, with tart gooseberry, sea salt, and a hint of coriander in a light hazy golden 440ml can.

About This Drink

Gose is a German sour style with two defining additions beyond standard brewing ingredients: salt and coriander. JumpShip's take follows the template and adds Scottish gooseberries, which bring a sharp, clean tartness that complements the salt without tipping into sweetness. The mixed culture fermentation — yeast and lactic acid bacteria together — gives depth that a simple kettle sour wouldn't. It pours a light, hazy golden with a white head. The aroma is tart gooseberries up front, with a subtle salinity behind it and a hint of coriander that reads more as spice than herb. The taste is crisp and sour rather than aggressively tart — the salt and fruit are in balance. JumpShip positions it as a warm weather beer and the style suits it. The Gooseberry Gose comes in 440ml cans and is gluten-free and vegan. Gooseberries are an underused brewing ingredient, and it's an interesting experiment from a brewery that doesn't tend to repeat itself.
