May 28, 2008 Found this one bottled at the Extra Value Liquor Store in North Aurora, Illinois. Bottled, so didn’t get a good look at the color. A very nutty and complex nose, with a bit of nougaty sweetness. Flavor is very unusual. Kind of biscuity. I don’t really know how to describe it. Sharp but balanced finish. I would be interested in sampling it again.

May 26, 2008 Tasted 5/25/08. 12oz bottle. Filtered with a dark golden hue. White ring of head. Aromas of honey, rubbery and wheat chaff. Nutty and caramel notes. Medium bodied with a nice effervescence. Dry malts with an odd popcorn and pretzel flavor. Bright floral yeast character. Mild hops. Tart and grainy. Touch honey and citrus. Mildly burnt. Toasty and nutty. Citrus. As far as Gluten Free beers go, it’s quality. Though odd...

May 22, 2008 Bottle. Sweet grainy aroma - that is unmistakably sorghum, very strong and intimidating, with some reminders of Thanksgiving table scents. Sickly pale golden body with a scant white head. Terrible, terrible taste - it’s a bit difficult to describe - stale, grainy, and gamey, with all the worst headache-inducing off-flavors of a bumwine minus any of the good childish fruity flavors. Medium body feels sludgy, with subtle alcohol. Unbelievably NASTY.

May 11, 2008 OK....I’ll admit I don’t know much about gluten. I didn’t know the government was stepping in to certify things "gluten-free". What I DO know is if I was one of these people who couldn’t tolerate the stuff and THIS is what I had to drink, I would jump off a cliff (or maybe just give up beer). Aroma was nothing but just the slightest hint of grass. Pour was a near clear water with a few bubbles and no head. Taste was sweet in the front and a hint of sour grass in the aftertaste. Terrible.

May 11, 2008 I would pick this one over the redbridge any day. while its not the best tasting, i wouldn’t consider utterly repuslive, ecspecially if it’s all you’re able to drink. However, this is can be a nasty beer after its been sitting in the bottle for a few months. The rice goes horribly stinky and it is undrinkable. Poured a somewhat hazey golden-orange colour with a full white head. Strong rice aroma, and faint wheat. Mouthfeel is wierd, sort of slimey, with a dull, chewy finish.

Apr 23, 2008 Thin and somewhat watery, Weird flavor that I typically associate with bad lagers, but not as pronounced. Some off-tasting fruits. Not great, but I guess if you have a gluten problem it will do. It’s also not terrible.

Apr 21, 2008 Updated: Apr 3, 2009Bottle forcibly shared by maniac because, well, I just had to knock out this style IMMEDIATELY even though I can get this beer at the store where I spend 40 hours a week at 20% off at any time! I do really appreciate the gesture, though. Peach/copper color with floaties, which was unexpected. Fizzy, quickly dissipating head. Fruity aroma with a touch of caramel. Taste is nearly identical. I’ve had a couple other gluten-free beers, and this one isn’t bad.
