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/).

I was at one time diagnosed (mistakenly) as having a severe allergy to gluten and was faced with the reality of having to give up beer (and most other grains) so I think this is a great product for those who cannot enjoy normal, barley-wheat-rye beers. On its own merits; it sucks. A notch above macro-swill. A little more character with some interesting toffee and earthy notes. I could toss a few of these back on a hot day with a bratwust.

Pours a pale orange with a loose-bubbled head which dissipates quickly. Aroma is sweet and slightly off, can’t quite place it - apples? Tastes of maple syrup and green apple, seems all sorghum beers have this flavour but this one is more maple syrupy than the rest. Thin body with lots of fizzy carb. If I was told this was a cider I’d think it to be sessionable, but as a beer it’s best to avoid.

Pours a nice bronze color with very little white head. Smell is sour. Flavor is very sour and tastes like it has gone bad. REALLY BAD. Maybe I got a bad bottle. It says it was bottled in February though... weird. Yuk. 12 oz. bottle.

Bottle: Pours a dark golden color with a smaller white head. Aroma is sweet and of malts and honey. Flavor is sweet and honeylike with a bit of caramel. Creamy mouthful. Can’t say it tasted real bad, but it lacked much definitive flavor overall.

Bottle - Poured a dark amber in color with a small white head that faded quickly. Aroma is sweet and malty with caramel and brown sugar. Flavor is also quite sweet... clingingly so and way too sweet for me. Slightly bitter aftertaste. REALLY not very good...

This beer is very cleen and smooth with a hint of carmel. one of the smoothiest lagers I’ve tasted thus far. Would be very enjoyable on a hot summer day.
