Appearance: Served up a clear, lightly hued, golden body with a thin, wispy white layering on top. Smell: Very lightly scented brew, with just thin traces of sorghum syrup and lemon verbana. Taste: That curious, altogether distinct sorghum taste, though fairly light here. Hint of grains soaked in watered-down honey. A spritz of lime juice and some soft florals with a light bitterness. The flavor continues to lighten, continues to slacken, until it’s just, poof, gone. Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body. Lightly carbonated. Drinkability: I wouldn’t be thrilled to drink this beer if I had to go gluten-free. I’d just stick to wine, most likely.
