Jun 30, 2009 Fruity nose, apple like, pale yellow, sporting a small white head. Taste is watered down apple juice. Thin bodied, listlous. Poor offering.

Jun 26, 2009 Pours thin and gold. Is that Sake or Elmer’s Glue I smell? Flavor is incredibly sweet, lemon, honey, actually balances briefly before drying out on the finish. A somewhat unpleasant aftertaste, kind of salty and bitter. Neat as a niche beer, not so much as a drinking beer.

Jun 23, 2009 Light, but sweet nose with a hint of spice (cloves?). I smell no hops. Attractive carbonation, golden hue, short-lived 1/2 inch head. Sweet on the palate. Somewhat lacking in body, but could be a warm-weather quencher. Hints of sake? No malt notes of which to speak, as may be expected. I would certainly recommend this beer to Celiacs, and would be pleased to drink if offered. I am not about to seek it out, however.

Jun 18, 2009 Bottle (12oz). Shared by blankboy. Slightly hazy pale gold, no head. Smells like spoiled apple juice, sort of burnt and sweet, alcohol presence. Sort of ugly, dead taste - apple cores and newsprint, it pretty much has NO taste, but what’s there is not good at all. Still, harsh, watery mouthfeel, harsh apple core aftertaste. Friggin’ brutal.

May 31, 2009 Very pale gold med dense pour, very small fine head and little carb. Almost no aroma, maybe a bit of sweetness and metal. Taste sweet grain, fruit, a little spicy like a strange Québéc ale - dilute and a bit nondescript but certainly not nasty. I don’t care for the finish and feel.

May 30, 2009 With thanks to GregClow for this one. I’ll replace the bottle to share with the rest of the TO crew for our next tasting..Appearance: Nice golden yellow with a small dirty white head. Aroma: Slightly spicy, leafy (bay leaf?), some sweetness. Flavour: Hmm, sweet and fruity, some sake type notes (due to the rice?). Nicer than a lot of macro stuff available however it’s not great. But certainly the best of the handful of gluten free beers I’ve had.

May 28, 2009 Bottle Pours a clear gold with a small white head. The head leaves rather quickly. Produces light lacing on the glass. Aroma of sweet apples, and a touch of lemon. Has a decent carbonation. The flavor is dull. Lacks spice to make it come to life. Has a light body. The texture is watery. Has a nasty sweetness which is just kind of at you. Not awful but won’t ever have one of these again.
