The next in our series of beers with INSA is decidedly fruity in nature. We’ve pulled together our favourite berries and a touch of red grape juice to create this striking deep red gose. The base beer is fairly true to the gose style, dominated by malted and flaked wheat, alongside German pilsner malt and torrified oats which all come together for a full, rounded mouthfeel. The wort was soured in the kettle for 48 hours before being boiled with a touch of sweetening lactose and a pinch of sea salt, a signature addition of the style. The salinity really helps add great depth and roundness to the beer. Mid-fermentation we introduced the fruit at a rate of 140g/l, in total, 8 drums of fruit puree were sacrificed in the name of flavour! Led by blueberry and blackberry, backed up with sweet and sour cherry and all finished with dark grape juice. The colour is radiant and the beer is packed full with all the berry fruit flavour you could wish for!
