Bayerischer Bahnhof Original Leipziger Gose

This original Leipzig beer specialty lends us the name for our brewery. Gose is a regional beer specialty that was brought to Saxony-Anhalt in the year 1738.

About Gose

Originally Gose comes from Goslar Germany, a small town in Lower Saxony, and the river “Gose” in this town.

This beer specialty has a refreshing, slightly sour taste and is ideal for quenching your thirst. Gose is brewed with the additional ingredients lactic acid, coriander, and salt.

Bayerischer Bahnhof Original Leipziger Gose is unfiltered, unpasteurized , and bottle-conditioned.

It is of a yellowish color; a hint of apple-skin aroma in the nose; its flavor & taste profile is quite complex with notes of plums, herbs, and coriander on the palate.

Leipziger Gose is a top-fermenting wheat beer {60% wheat, 40% barley malt} with coriander and salt added in the boil. Lactic acid bacteria is added later.

It is a 4.5% ABV eclectic beer whose name evokes a close relationship to the renowned Lambic/Geuze breweries in the Valley Senne nearby Brussels, Belgium.

The refreshing sharpness of the salt is quite subtle. The finish is dry with the lactic acid bacteria providing some nice refreshing undertones.

The spread of the bottom-fermenting pilsner style, as well as economic decline of East Germany under communist regime, contributed to the demise of the Leipziger Gose which was last brewed in the mid 1960s.
