Bikini Atoll
- Gose - a warm fermented beer that originated in Goslar, Germany. Dominant flavours in gose include a lemon sourness, a herbal characteristic, and a strong saltiness.
- 5.2% ABV, 6 IBU
- Cans and draft
- $10.99 @ Goody Goody
- With its low hop bitterness, saltiness, and citrus flavors, the Bikini Atoll is often a favorite amongst our friends that think they don’t like beer. In contrast, the beer snobs out there love it as well. It is light and effervescent with high carbonation.
- Summers at the pool inspired this beer. There is nothing more refreshing in the Texas heat than a crisp and tart Gose.
The Review
This beer is sour and salty. Not exactly our favorite flavor profile. There is also a less than outstanding aftertaste. I can not imagine drinking more than one at a time. Unless you like sour salty beer, leave this one at the store. Not quite as sour or salty as Miller House Brewing Salty Lady, which we rated a one (1). There are plenty of good beers available. Dennis and I both rated this brew a two (2) bottle caps out of five (5).
