The beer type " Gose " originally originated in the German city of Goslar and was named after the river Gose. It was originally a medieval beer made from malt porridge that could ferment in open vats without the addition of brewer's yeast (this also happened in Belgium with the Gueuze beers).

The spontaneous fermentation produced a fairly sour wheat beer to which salt and coriander were added.
After some time, the Gose beer was brewed not only in Goslar but also in Leipzig and became the general city beer there in the 18th and 19th centuries.

In the 20th century, Gose beer disappeared from Germany again. But in the 1990s, Gose made a resurgence in Leipzig and Goslar. Only now brewers' yeasts were added for lactic acid fermentation. However, salt and coriander were added again for Gose's own taste.

Gosebier is now also brewed in the Netherlands, including by Jopen, Lowlander and Budels.
In 2018, the Brand beer brewery organized a brewing competition with the assignment to brew Gose beer. However, the beer did not return after this match.
