yellow with a slight haze, whispy white head that’s easily roused to produce some drippy lace, light sweet candy aroma with a hint of spices, good body, nice unusual sweetness, balanced with some light spices, an interesting experience, labeled as a beer made from sorghum and rice extract

Cloudy yellow. Big bubbles. Aroma is massive sorghum, some apple juice. Body is fairly full. Flavour is very sorghumy, with apples and alcohol coming in late. Pregunta - how much gluten do hops have that they had to be omitted from the recipe? Yes, it’s not brewed for me but damnit even Celiacs need hops in their beer!
1.4 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 4/20
(12oz bottle, brewed July 06) Small white head atop clear straw body. Aroma is medium sweet, lime, some lemon, light bread. Taste is medium sweet, lime, grain -- caused a serious wince on the first taste but a couple of sips in it was somewhat tolerable. Light body, low carbonation. If this is the best gluten-free beer, I hope I never develop a gluten allergy.

2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
A strange, but not unpleasant aroma. Something of yeast, fruit and honey. Pale brassy color with a frothy white head that laced a very little. Something of a berry aroma as the glass approaches the lips. Near medium mouthfeel. There is indeed a cideriness here. Maybe with a bit of citrus. It does tend towards sour rather than sweet. Leaves something of a herb/veg mouth coat. Finishes with no bitter and a little citrus sour in the back of the mouth. Probably an acquired taste, but really not a bad thing.

Bottle... co-rated by Duff... Clear, very light yellow ale with a small, wispy, white head. Lots of acetaldehyde I suspect. Smells and tastes watered down with lots of green apple bubblegum and spent grain. Light-bodied and fizzy. Short crisp finish. Neither of us liked this one much. Not at all good. If you’re going gluten free, go with Dragons Bard at this point.
2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bottle. Poured clear pale color with an average frothy white head that mostly diminished with fair lacing. Moderate sour citrus hop aroma. Light to medium body with a watery texture. Light balanced flavor with a light bitter finish of short duration. My expectations where not met.
2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
12oz bottle. Poured a medium golden / yellow color with an averaged sized head. Some green apples and just kind of funky. Some caramel in the tastes. This one was kinda weird and couldn’t really nail it down. Light sour finish.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
A light golden ale with a thin white head. Aroma is watered down c-hops, not bad, but leaving you on your thirst. Perfumey notes develop. In mouth, a sweetish acidic and hoppy ale with perfumey hops, oily mouthfeel, light solvent note. I have tasted worst, but I wouldnt buy a six pack of these. Bottle from LCBO Kirkwood/Carling, Ottawa, 2$.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Pours a transparent sparkling golden with a thin, wispy-lacing covering of white head. Grainy, slightly peppery floral aroma has a touch of citrus and noble hops. Body starts faintly sweet with some citrus tartness and a thin palate toward a fairly clean finish.
