You can override GO_VERSION_DEFAULT in the package Makefile, a few packages used to do that. 

It might be better to upgrade the version of quic-go to one that supports Go 1.19 by patching go.mod. There is some other package (I forgot which one, sorry) where I did this when I flipped the default Go version to 1.19.
