| 1.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 1/5 | 3/20 | Sep 14, 2008 Dragon Whiz. In Zimbabwe (which I knew as Rhodesia) the Mashona brew a substance called doro, which is made of millet or sorghum. They use bread yeast, and drink large quantities until they are bestonkered. It’s a ghastly mess, but better and safer than the water. This tasted almost exactly like that.
Bottle. Poured pale gold with white foam. Aroma of caramel, and nothing else. Flavour of caramel, and water. Finish of caramel and nothing else. Pas op!. fakepurseninja (785), Washington, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 14/20 | Sep 5, 2008 I was at one time diagnosed (mistakenly) as having a severe allergy to gluten and was faced with the reality of having to give up beer (and most other grains) so I think this is a great product for those who cannot enjoy normal, barley-wheat-rye beers. On its own merits; it sucks. A notch above macro-swill. A little more character with some interesting toffee and earthy notes. I could toss a few of these back on a hot day with a bratwust. mgermani (865), Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Aug 29, 2008 Pours a pale orange with a loose-bubbled head which dissipates quickly. Aroma is sweet and slightly off, can’t quite place it - apples? Tastes of maple syrup and green apple, seems all sorghum beers have this flavour but this one is more maple syrupy than the rest. Thin body with lots of fizzy carb. If I was told this was a cider I’d think it to be sessionable, but as a beer it’s best to avoid. SSSteve (2090), Atlanta, Georgia, USA

Flavor is very sour and tastes like it has gone bad. REALLY BAD. Maybe I got a bad bottle. It says it was bottled in February though... weird. Yuk.

Aroma is sweet and of malts and honey. Flavor is sweet and honeylike with a bit of caramel. Creamy mouthful. Can’t say it tasted real bad, but it lacked much definitive flavor overall.

| 1.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 7/20 | May 18, 2008 Bottle - Poured a dark amber in color with a small white head that faded quickly. Aroma is sweet and malty with caramel and brown sugar. Flavor is also quite sweet... clingingly so and way too sweet for me. Slightly bitter aftertaste. REALLY not very good...
