Hertl - Gurken Gose

Hertl Gurken Gose – The Ultimate Refreshment in a Glass

Whenever David Hertl gets to work, the result is usually something extraordinary. With the Gurken Gose, the family brewery presents an interpretation of the historical Gose beer style that, at just 3.3% ABV, is perfect for warm days or as an exciting aperitif. This is where Franconian brewing craftsmanship meets a dash of experimentation.

On the nose and palate, this beer shows its lively side. The Gose style is typically characterized by a delicate lactic acid fermentation, which gives the beer an invigorating freshness. The namesake cucumber provides a profile that immediately brings to mind a cool vegetable garden or a freshly prepared salad – absolutely clean and uncompromisingly refreshing.

The base for this brew consists of water, barley malt, wheat malt, and hops. The characteristic minerality and subtle salt note that define a classic Gose harmonize perfectly here with the cucumber aroma. It is a play of acidity, spice, and extreme lightness that is unparalleled in the German craft beer scene.

This beer is far more than just a thirst quencher. It is an homage to an old beer style, interpreted here in a modern and bold way. The Gurken Gose is the liquid answer for anyone tired of standard lagers who wants to expand their palate towards sour beers.

As a food companion, this Gose performs excellently. Try it with a classic Greek salad with feta or a cold cucumber soup (Gazpacho). The beer's acidity cuts beautifully through salty or creamy components.
