3.4 35,5cl Can @ De Bierkoning, Amsterdam, Netherlands. Hazy golden colour with a thin white head. Aroma is melon, tart, salty. Taste follows the aroma. Medium body, average carbonation.

2.6 Can. Gold in color with a three finger head. Aroma was a funky fruity one. Taste was fruity and not very good.

3.3 Draught at the Federalist, Sacramento, smallish creamy head, just a touch hazy pale orange color, aroma of melon and candy , dominant melon flavor with some fruit and candy, light fruity sourness, noticable saltiness. interesting and quite enjoyable.

3.2 Can. Golden color with light haze. Aroma: a bit weird, fruity, a little pickled melon, light sweetish spice. Taste: sour, light pickle, melon, other fruits, lightest hint of salt and spice, refreshing.

4.6 Very tasteful and an easy drink. Love drinking this during the summer as it is very refreshing and the salt added really brings the taste of the beer to life.

2.1 Found on tap in Bryson City, NC. Clear light green color with bubbly foam. Decent aroma but really sour for me.

3.2 12 ounce can with an indecipherable date stamp. Slight haze on the golden brew with plenty of tiny legs but a fleeting head. Mild aroma of wheat, mineral and a touch of lemon. Tastes of cucumber in mild vinegar solution, watermelon, salt and bread. Light body has too much explosive fizz. Easy drinking balance.

3.4 12 oz. can pours a very slightly hazy straw color with a quickly dissipating three finger head. Aroma is predominantly gose with a touch of watermelon. The tartness is sharp without being distasteful. The salt brings out the flavor of the underlying beer, while the watermelon lends a softening sweetness to the whole experience. The mouthfeel is crisp and refreshing. Overall, this beer is very easy to drink and rather enjoyable.

3.4 12 fl oz can. Appearance is a dull orange topped with a finger of soapy white froth, which vanishes in seconds! Aroma is tart, floral, green melons. Taste is lightly tart, but not puckerish, some salt, floral green melons, which are more like cucumbers than the watermelons it is brewed with. Medium bodied. Well carbonated at the start, but loses fizz quite quickly.

3.3 Optisch wunderbar, leichte Perlung, deutlich Melone in Nase und Trunk, schön sauer, spritzig, fruchtig, süß, süffig.

3.5 Not as funky as I expected. A decent thirst quencher for a hot day. I slight sour note and subtle melon palate, but subdued from the salty gose flavour.

3.5 Canned 0,355L. Pale and unclear yellow/orange color, medium bubbly aspect with discreet white head of medium resistance. Sweet, salty and light acidulous aroma, notes of pale malt, yeast, melon, aged and riped white grapes.

3.4 Canned 355ml. -at Pivoteka Zagreb. Unclear yellow coloured, small white head, dusty watermalon nose. Sourish & salty with notes of watermelon and light cucumber touch. Simple and interesting but not for a second chance.

3.5 Can at Pivoteka, thanks Ogi! Hazy golden, small white head. Saltwater with hints of cucumber and watermelon. Fresh taste, watermelon heading towards cucumber on a lean/salty background. Quite nice!

3.5 The aroma of cucumber and cucumber pickle, melon, if there is, then it is barely distinguishable. The color is yellow, a little hazy, the foam leaves rather quickly. Kislenko, cucumber pickle and then there is more than a week melon. The body is light, medium carbonation.

3.5 Tart, salty, fruity gose. Fizzy, fast dropping head. Mediocre aroma. A little berry flavor. Refreshing.

3.5 Can. Pours unclear amber. Aroma is super floral, melon, light coriander. Body is light, softly salty with a medium carbonation, a bit waterish but not too bad. Light and refreshing. Could have more flavours, but works like that

3.4 Can. Golden pour. Aroma of melon, mild tart and wheat. Taste has salty wheat, tart, melon, some barf and mild acid. Bit weird, melon is difficult.

3.8 Barwa słomkowa, opalizacja, sycząca biała piana. W aromacie trochę lacto i melona, a może bardziej arbuza. Pachnie niezbyt inyensywnie, ale zachecająco. W smaku arbuzowe, kwaśne, ze słonawym aftertastem. Bardzo orzeźwiający wynalazek, dobrze gasi pragnienie.

3.4 W aromacie arbuz, nuty kwaśne, żółte owoce. Z wyglądu złote, średnio opalizujące z niewielką pianą. W smaku kwaśne, zbożowe, z nutą arbuzową, lekko słone. Pijalność wysoka, smukłe, lekkie. Ogólnie przyzwoite gose z lekką arbuzową nutą

3.6 Can. Clear golden. Whitish froth. Sour apple, heavy watermelon, and a fair amount of salt and sweet taste. Slightly dry.

3.6 Can from Die Bierkonig, consumed on the streets of A’dam. It’s what it says on the tin really, pleasantly tart with a slight, but definite watermelon character and a good portion of salt, mainly in the finish. Light bodied, easy to drink.

3.5 Clear amber with rimming white foamy head Aroma is tangy sweet notes of watermelon Flava is very tart sour apple jolly rancher notes Feels light crisp fizzy foamy zing Finish is tangy dry

3.0 Can, courtesy of Brian Hazy golden colour, with no head. The aroma is like cucumber. Moderate acidity, a bit oily mouthfeel, strong salt presence, with some cucumber flavour. Comes through somehow artificial, althugh it's supposed to have natural flavours.

3.4 355ml can @ Alex's. Pours a lightly hazy with a small white head that dissipates immediately. Nose is lightly sour, melon, and cucumber notes. Flavour is lightly tart, mild melon candy. and a hint of salt. Light bodied with light mouth carbonation and is subtly sweet. Not bad and refreshing.
