I dislike Go intensely, but nothing else currently fits its niche as well.
For a large or complex codebase, I nominate Cloud Foundry. About 1.5M SLOC of Go (1.8M LOC) in the main cloudfoundry repos[0]. Almost all new development is in Go.
There's still about 370KSLOC (470K LOC) of Ruby. Eventually most of it will be replaced, which will drive that Go codebase up a lot.
Disclosure: I work for Pivotal. Lots of my colleagues wrote most of that Go. I for one pity them, but they seem to have enjoyed it.
