You can use Go with Heroku, with a buildpack [1]. There's a free plan, but it doesn't include SSL.

The free plan also "sleeps" after inactivity, right? I assume that means a really long page load for the visitor that follows the inactivity? And, you're still left implementing caching, redirects, etc, in a language (Go or Ruby) vs configuration directives.

Just seems a poor option compared to other choices, at least for static content.
