Cigar City Brewing 5 Beers For 5 Years Margarita Style Gose Ale

Cigar City Brewing turned five this year, and it didn’t take long for them to realize they had never brewed an anniversary beer! To remedy this situation they decided to brew and release five anniversary beers at the same time, so the “5 Beers For 5 Years” series was born.

5 Beers For 5 Years Margarita Style Gose Ale was conceived by The Packaging Team. Thankfully I was able to try the last two 5 Year Beers on our summer trip to Florida, they were both available on draft the day we went to the brewery. The taste is just as advertised, salty with a strong puch of lime. It doesn’t actually taste like a margarita, but the idea is insanly clever and well accomplished.

I would say this is a tad bit less refreshing than some of the other Gose beers I’ve had, but that doesn’t stop this from being excelent!
