Aug 8, 2007 12 oz. bottle. Pours a clear light gold with a sudsy white head that faded to a white film before mid-glass. Fairly strong grain aroma, which I guess is sorghum since I’ve never tasted or smelled sorghum before. You can taste the sorghum in the flavor as well, which I didn’t care for all that much. Slightly sweet. The strong/sweet grain flavor reminded me a bit of buckwheat honey, although I like the flavor of buckwheat. A bit of a metallic flavor at the finish. Thin bodied. For those on a restrcited diet, I am sure this beer is very welcomed.

Jul 29, 2007 Bottle. Aromas of grain and cereal are right up front with a candy smell in the background. Color is gold and the head is fizzy and fully diminishing. Flavor starts lightly acidic and finishes moderately sweet and lightly acidic. Palate is light to medium and the texture is watery with a fizzy carbonation. Nothing special aside for the uniqueness of the use of sorghum for the grain, but I did like it’s refreshing quality.

Jul 27, 2007 I am not a fan. I will not be having this again when other choices are available. That said, I suppose it would be better than no beer at all, so don’t let my comments discourage those of you who happen to have the misfortune of Celiac disease.
It is a hazy dark yellow color with minimal head. Aroma is very faintly of hops (inhale very deeply) with nothing else to speak of. Flavor is sort of corn syrup-y with a weird cereal-ness which was not very appealing. Mouthfeel is slick and watery.

Jul 6, 2007 Pours a darkish gold with a very thin white head that fades fast. Odd, sweet rice aroma. Flavor is ... well, it’s just awful. It tastes like burned cough syrup: very sweet and medicinal. Astringent, highly carbonated mouthfeel. Lingering finish that’s just plain bad. Not a single thing good about this beer.

Jun 20, 2007 I can’t believe it’s not wheat! Actually, it’s a pretty bland attempt to fit in, however if I couldn’t handle gluten like my friend who gave me a sip, I’d probably be pretty happy to find this beverage. It’s basically an atempt at macro swill, so if you don’t like that, don’t bother (other than to say you tried it).
