What are you gonna use it for?
Go seems to have a strong foothold in cloud-related projects (i.e. Docker, Flynn, many parts of CoreOS). So if you're in the same niche it's probably an okay choice even if only for community reasons.
But if you're doing something app-level you're probably taking a big risk.

While I like Python I would prefer a static type system for this project. So it is basically Java vs Go. I have no quarrel with Java but Go's lightweight concurrency and design appeal to the minimalist in me. Maybe I am just overanxious. What I will do now is to implement separate parts of my technical architecture in Go while taking care that I can cut any of them out, if required.
