About This Beer

Grimm canned the sensation of a trek through the forest when they made Super Spruce.

The brewers dialed up the Gose’s resinous notes by layering the lightly salted Sour with Chinook Hops and spruce tips. The trees’ verdant new growth accents the hops’ piney and pithy nuances.

Tasting Notes

Brightly hazy notes of grapefruit breeze past woody conifer tones and subtle, lavender-like florals in this unfiltered brew. Its tartness balances with the spruce and a mineral saltiness to create a refreshing sipper that @Joe F. calls, “One of the more interesting beers I’ve ever had.”

Don’t be GRIMM, because this will definitely SUPER SPRUCE your spirits. It’s (a) solid Gose!

there’s a hint of spruce on the aftertaste but it tastes more like lime

nice tartness and saltiness with the gose style, I don’t pick up much of the spruce however

Spruce-y and salty as advertised. Would have liked to see a little more spruce character though

I loved the hopped up gose! The bitterness of the hops and the sea salt made for an earthy drinking experience. Would absolutely drink again.

Light, piney aroma. Nice tartness without being too sour. Just a bit of saline and some nice earthy spruce tips coming in right at the end. Real nice.

Lovely spruce addition to very lemony hop profile. A little mineral saltiness balances out the tartness well.

Super Spruce is a nice salted gose style beer with hints of resinous pine and hops.

A lot more sour than most gose's I've had. Salty with some spice to it. Starts off pretty sour but I think the saltiness takes it over

Great seasonal. Like crisp snowfall next to an open fire.
