City of Goses

City of Goses, the largest celebration of goses brewed from Saxony to Stumptown, is also the Portland Rose Festival's first sanctioned beer festival. From über traditional takes on this salty, sour beer including imports from Leipzig to a bevy of takes from around the Pacific Northwest and across the United States, it will take returning both days of this two-day fest over Memorial Day weekend (Sat & Sun, 1-9pm) to fully experience the range goses have to offer.
