stegosaurus (1882), Levittown, Pennsylvania, USA Feb 19, 2007 Bottle sampled with Beerded one. Pours copper with a small white head. Aroma of sweet malts and grain. The flavor is sweet malts, slight fruit, grain, and mildly bitter. Thin body, not bad. JK (2946), Richfield, Minnesota, USA Feb 12, 2007 Gold color. Very light hop and chemical aroma. Flavor is sweet fermented grains. Really not much body at all. joebrew (608), Farewell Minny; Hello Puyallup, Washington, USA Feb 12, 2007 Pours a light golden. Light pils-like flavor with a considerable sweetness to the grainy mouthfeel, but for a gluten-free beer this is pretty nice. I would drink this over almost all BMC product, and it is a nice substitute for a celiac for now. tomciccateri (496), Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA Feb 4, 2007 From a 12-ounce brown bottle dated seven (7) month ago. Poured a very clear copper color with no head. Light-to-medium body with a slightly slick mouthfeel. Unique flavor, must be the sorghum, dominated everything after the early hop bitterness. Well carbonated with a somewhat sweet flavor balance. I prefer malt. hopdog (5534), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA Feb 3, 2007 12oz bottle, bottled on 10/02/06. Poured a medium orangish color with a smaller sized off white head. Very sweet aroma. There’s something there I can’t quite place. Must be the sorghum. Toffee and caramel. Plastic beach balls. Sweet tastes (but not as sweet as the aromas. Caramel. Thin body. TechMyst (166), Fox River Grove, Illinois, USA Jan 28, 2007 Consumed 8 months after production. Very clear amber with hints of ruby. Good appearance is where the ’goodness’ ends for this brew. Aroma is of sugary malts (this is a sourghum based concoction). No head and there was large bubbles lazily making their way to the top, so I figured the conditioning would not have much bite, but I was wrong. The carbonation had quite a bit of sting. mouthfeel was light to medium and left a slick palate. The tongue curling sweetness was followed by a tinny/metallic taste. Don’t think I’ll try this again...I bought a single 12 oz bottle from Binny’s and I’m glad I never got the sixer... KAggie97 (2406), Ugly, Hot, and Humid Spring, Texas, USA Jan 23, 2007 Bottle. Pours thin amber with an aroma of beans and corn with butter. Tastes like soy, dirt, and butter. Thin and lifeless on the tongue. Please, PLEASE- no more sorghum beers. Homebrewerguy (284), Oil City, Pennsylvania, USA Jan 15, 2007 Updated: Jan 16, 2007My first sorghum beer. The bottle says it was brewed on 7/25/06.. So this is what they’re drinking in China...the poor saps. Sorghum certainly ain’t barley and the difference is in the beer. Still I could understand a cult following for the sharp taste of sorghum. Not me though.
