Lakefront New Grist Sorghum Beer

Brewed by Lakefront Brewery
Style: Specialty Grain
Milwaukee, Wisconsin USA

typical golden yellow pour. A touch of spice in the aroma, with some sweet biscuit. Not Bad. Flavor is refreshing, and tasty, not discusting like other gluten free beers i’ve had. This is decent! I’m quite surprised, i dont see myself buying it again, but it did surprise me.

Yellow bubbly clear with small diminishing head, White wine aroma, nice acidity, flavor of wine and citron, medium texture, fun to drink but not really a beer.

12oz bottle from the LCBO. An interesting new product though I baffled by its inclusion to the LCBO line up given the staggering number of very interesting beers from this same brewery that I would love to try. Wtf? Anyways, pours a sparkling gold, very effervescent with a fast dissipating white head. The aroma is weird, but nice. Kind of spicy, in a Belgian sort of way, sweet ’malts’ but obviously not barley malts of course, ’sorghum’. It actually smells pretty nice. Some minor fruity esters and candi sugar? Flavour is even better, some dry spicyness up front makes way for a lot of malty sweetness and mixed fruity elements. Nice and crisp feel to it. I never thought a gluten-free beer could actually be so tasty! I could easily drink this again, though I’d still like it if the LCBO could bring in some other things from this brewer. (Focktoberfest? Titanic Pilsener? Come on! I want them!) Definitely an under-rated beer IMHO. I think I’m the only other person besides Len who has rated this new product in the entire province of Ontario. Damn, we’ll just try anything won’t we?

Bottle from the LCBO- Pale sparkling gold with a fizzy and loud white cap. Nose is rice, grains, doughy, bread crust. Tastes of sweet grains and lemon, of rice too. Quick fizzy finish. Pretty standard fare, and not too bad for a Sorghum beer.

clear straw color with very active carbonation. Aroma smells like a tart, very light white wine- weird. Taste is light bodied, dry, it actually tastes more like a white wine in that it’s pretty tart and has some mild sour notes. It’s the first all sorghum beer I’ve had and on that front it’s interesting....will I have another? I’m not sure...

Bottle. Pours gold with a wispy head. Aroma of light hops and a certain grain. Flavor starts mellow malt sweet, then transitions to a strange rice flavor. Aftertaste is worse. Overall, strange, and not rewarding. What is the point of this beer besides pure novelty?

This almost had a lambic-esque quality about it. 12 oz purchased from Stones River Total Bev. in Murfreesboro. Poured a clear gold color with a one finger off white head. Sweet aroma and a sour flavor.

12 oz. bottle. Pours light orange with minimal white head. Smells a little lemony and some weird cookie or cracker. Tastes citrusy and very sour. Some lemon and a very weird grain taste. Has an unusual sourness that doesnt go right in a beer, but not terrible.
