Using postgres Instead of pg in Better Auth – Is It Possible?
Could you use Kysley postgres-js dialect instead? It uses postgres.js under the hood. 
betterAuth({
  database: new PostgresJSDialect({
    postgres: postgres({
      database: 'test',
      host: 'localhost',
      max: 10,
      port: 5434,
      user: 'admin',
    }),
  }),
});
betterAuth({
  database: new PostgresJSDialect({
    postgres: postgres({
      database: 'test',
      host: 'localhost',
      max: 10,
      port: 5434,
      user: 'admin',
    }),
  }),
});

Works for me. Could it be tsserver not updating after you upgraded your better-auth deps?

most likely either a export const runtime = 'edge';
Better Auth doesn't work on edge.

Don't put the additional fields in the schema. It should be at the betterAuth level. Here is how it should be: 
export const auth = betterAuth({
  secret: process.env.SECRET!,
  database: drizzleAdapter(db, {
    provider: "pg",
    schema: {
      user,
      verification,
      session,
      account,
    },
  }),
  user:{
    additionalFields: { 
          isAdmin: {
             type: "boolean",
             required: true,
             defaultValue: false,
             input: false
          },
      },
  },
  emailAndPassword: {
    enabled: true,
    requireEmailVerification: false,
  },
  socialProviders: {
    google: {
      clientId: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID! as string,
      clientSecret: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET! as string,
    },
  },
  plugins: [username()],
})
export const auth = betterAuth({
  secret: process.env.SECRET!,
  database: drizzleAdapter(db, {
    provider: "pg",
    schema: {
      user,
      verification,
      session,
      account,
    },
  }),
  user:{
    additionalFields: { 
          isAdmin: {
             type: "boolean",
             required: true,
             defaultValue: false,
             input: false
          },
      },
  },
  emailAndPassword: {
    enabled: true,
    requireEmailVerification: false,
  },
  socialProviders: {
    google: {
      clientId: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID! as string,
      clientSecret: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET! as string,
    },
  },
  plugins: [username()],
})

Can I integrate Better-Auth between Nextjs and GO Backend?
Otherwise if we're talking about better-auth server instance on Go, that isn't an option as of now.

^ this is assuming you're talking about the better-auth server instance being used on Nextjs.

It's possible. RIght now, there isn't a better-auth library for GO though, so you'll need to build your own solution which can be challenging. But it's definitely possible. Better Auth works around endpoints, so as long as you have the required headers, body info, method, etc and hit the right endpoints, everything should work.

Most cases, you define the additional fields here, then on the auth client, when using inferAdditionalFields, the generic would be typeof auth. Like this: 
import { inferAdditionalFields } from "better-auth/client/plugins";
import { createAuthClient } from "better-auth/react";
import type { auth } from "./auth";
 
export const authClient = createAuthClient({
  plugins: [inferAdditionalFields<typeof auth>()],
});
import { inferAdditionalFields } from "better-auth/client/plugins";
import { createAuthClient } from "better-auth/react";
import type { auth } from "./auth";
 
export const authClient = createAuthClient({
  plugins: [inferAdditionalFields<typeof auth>()],
});

Make sure to actually add the additional fields to your server auth config as well. EG: 
import { betterAuth } from "better-auth";
 
export const auth = betterAuth({
   user: {
      additionalFields: { 
          role: {
             type: "string",
             required: false,
             defaultValue: "user",
             input: false // don't allow user to set role
          },
          lang: {
            type: "string",
            required: false,
            defaultValue: "en",
          }
      }
   }
})
import { betterAuth } from "better-auth";
 
export const auth = betterAuth({
   user: {
      additionalFields: { 
          role: {
             type: "string",
             required: false,
             defaultValue: "user",
             input: false // don't allow user to set role
          },
          lang: {
            type: "string",
            required: false,
            defaultValue: "en",
          }
      }
   }
})

It seems the error comes from the jose lib. But I can't find it anywhere from inferAdditionalFields. By the way, is this error occurring IN runtime? Or does it show you that before hand?

Custom DB Adapter
I also recommend checking out how Better Auth internally creates adapters for ORMs like Drizzle and stuff. Taking a look at their code can give inspiration on how to approach certain things.
