Commercial Description:
This Golden Sorghum Lager will appeal to beer drinkers who prefer the lighter taste of lagers produced by the major brewers, such as Anheuser-Busch, Coors, Miller, and Heineken. This ale has a light crisp taste to meet the thirst quenching requirements of the lager style while still having enough body to interest the ale drinker during the spring and summer seasons. This beer has low bitterness and a subtle but pleasant hop aroma that will gently caress the senses.

Note: contract brewed for Bard’s Tale Beer (<A HREF=http://www.bardsbeer.com/ TARGET=blank>http://www.bardsbeer.com/).

Clear amber pour, not much head. Not much aroma. Pleasant on the palate, but flavor is muddled and tends toward the sour. Unremarkable.

12 oz bottle. Pours gold with amber highlights. Small white head quickly disappears. Skunky pilsner like aroma. Tastes like wet cardboard smells with a hint of malty sweetness. Short and metallic finish. Decent for what it is I guess.

Bottle sampled with Stegosaurus. Pours golden with not much of a head. Nice sweet malts aroma. Flavor is sweet, with an underlining bitterness.

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.

Gold color. Very light hop and chemical aroma. Flavor is sweet fermented grains. Really not much body at all.

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.

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.

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.
