Anybody made one before?

Thoughts on a recipe/techniques?

I tried making one a couple of months ago by following this recipe: http://byo.com/hops/item/2349-gose, however it wasn't very tart/sour so I was disappointed. Ended up being an ok wheat beer (just with too much coriander).

Jimmy recently made a Berliner Weisse, that although I haven't been fortunate enough to try I hear it turned out well. I believe he used a sour mash?

Thanks, probably a useful base recipe. A sour mash sounds like the way to go, I recently did that with a berliner after my first try wasn't nearly sour/tart enough. I am hoping to use kelp for the saltness in the Gose.

Never had a gose before but it doesn't sound appealing. This made me laugh.

Good robot on Robbie has a Gose. Interesting beer with lots of different flavours going on. Was overly sweet for my tastes and I couldn't finish my growler in one sitting. Which isn't to say it wasn't good. I just like more dry and tart beers. I would put it in the category of beer that I would be very happy drinking a pint of, especially at the start of the night.

The gose's I've had have all been quite tasty. If it tasted like sweat and strong coriander that author may not have a had a very good example.

The guys from good robot have a pretty tasty gose on right now, if you've never tried one its definitely worth having.

Thanks for the props. We had two different gose recipes, both of which went through about 5 homebrew iterations before we got it the way we like it. Neither is traditional - as Celiacbrew mentioned, it's sweeter (and higher in alcohol) than a traditional gose. However, I do have some general tips if anyone is still looking for recipes.

Sure, bring on the tips, still haven't brewed it up, but I am hoping to brew one up relatively soon as I have a bag of wheat to use up.

I dont have a gose recipe...it is very specific beer. In last few years only one polish micro brewed this beer, only one.
Now in shops are next experimental beer - Sour Rye Pale Ale, 11,5°Plato / 4,3% alk, was brewed with one polish micro with cooperation of brewery To Ol.
The sour is from bactery of milk acid - Lactobacillus
