Fantastic beer. Pours great, nice citrus hop nose. Palate is medium, nice bitter balance with a bit of toasted grain. Surprise! No grains... Great beer that happens to be gluten free. Widmer never ceases to impress.

SLightly hazy copper color. 1.5 inch head holds at 1/4" + and has a dirty white color. Lacing is thin but abundant. Aroma is very nice with floral hoppiness and earthiness. It has a nice beer bite and tastes like good bitter hops with a cream ale backend. You can’t tell this beer is gluten free. It’s that good. To all you Widmer haters out there... grow up. Drifter, Dead Lift and now this... People with a gluten allergy can now enjoy a very hoppy pale ale that’s delicious... Truly amazing.

Hey now! This is the real deal. I’d drink this brew any day. Excellent hop presence with a solid malt foundation. Good head retention and carbonation. Nice job guys.

Well, I didn’t know that this was gluten free so that’s pretty good start. Looks the part, the aroma is a pretty balanced mixture of hops and malt. This goes down pretty smooth, and for a gluten free beer is a quite reasonable price. May be the best of the gluten frees I’ve had.

Golden in color, clear with a thin head. Now for the fun part,. This was a tasty easy drinking pale ale. Nice hops forward flavor. The malt was tasty and at times very hard to tell this was removed. Nice New Beer.

Excellent "gluten removed" beer! The first I’ve had that tastes like real beer. Nice hops flavor, very citrusey, with some excellent grapefruit flavors. Great pale ale, and a blessing for those who cannot eat gluten!

Well thats weird, I didn’t notice anything on the label advertising this as gluten free, though it makes sense given the name. Well I would have never guessed because my main impression of this beer was that it was a pretty standard PNW pale ale. Light hop nose was a touch spicy, hints of citrus. Flavor was balanced, a little floral and medium bready malts, balanced finish. Light, unobtrusive, clean. Pretty fair overall pale ale with good balance and no obvious flaws. (if I was a homebrew judge I’d give it near perfect marks, but this is ratebeer after all)

The aroma is hoppy with pine and citrus and well balanced by sweet grains. The appearance is light copper with a foamy head. The taste is hoppy and malty. The palate is smooth. Overall hands down the best gluten free beer I have had. I could drink this every day.

Pours a vibrant clean golden amber with one to two fingers of foamy off white head. Nose is nice, citrus rind with some pine resin and fresh cut grass with a touch of bread. Dry and light bodied with a peppery finish and citrus rind bitterness. Light caramel sweetness.

I would never have guessed it was gluten free. By far, the best one I’ve tried. It has a more red ale quality with a nice malt, caramel base, and a very well balanced hop presence.
