Lakefront New Grist Sorghum Beer

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

Crisp golden body with little head, it looks like apple juice. Sweet aroma that is unbeer like. Flavour is sweet and bready. Palate is a bit watery. Odd beer.

Bottle. Pours a pale golden body with a whit thin lacing. Freaking lame rice and metallic tin taste. A hint of apple i guess and some rye and oats. This beer sucks and now reading the description i see why no fucking barley. I am pissed that i bought this crap. It must suck to have an allergy to gluten, it must really suck bad, then again you probably found out drinking butt-weiser and you really wouldn’t give a shit would you now.

like watered down apple cider that someone dropped a rag into. I had to chug it, otherwise I would feel like I had done myself a disservice. Whole Foods.

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...
