Go does have some nice, clean resources, provided by the core language group and users. I find golang.org to be quite helpful. If you're interested in learning Go, I suggest Go's A Tour of Go to start: http://tour.golang.org/welcome/1
How novice? You could try out the Go Tour [1.]; it's gradual and if you find yourself getting stuck, you can break and definitely use Google to find help.
The Tour is a great place to start. It's a good idea to complement the basics you learn there with the common gotchas. "50 Shades of Go" covers most of the major gotchas.

There is also Effective Go for learning about, well, idiomatic Go: https://golang.org/doc/effective_go.html
