12oz bottle poured into a shaker. Pours a clear, pale gold with mibimal head. Aroma is super weak. A little fruit and bread. Taste is light tart. Like a pinot girgio with champagn yeast. Light bodied with a thin texture. Soft carbonation and a super long finish. Overall, meh. Im glad i can consume gluten.

Bottle. Clear pink amber with a tiny fizzy head that disappears almost immediately with no lacing. Aroma is strawberry, paint thinner, cardboard, rye. Flavor is the same, better than the smell. Medium sweet, not bitter.

bottle - Pours mostly clear caramel colored with a small, lingering head and some lacing. It has a very mild aroma, sugary with a touch of caramel. The flavor has moderate hops bitterness, caramel, and sugar. It’s big weakness is the body. Quite lacking. It would have been worse without some good hops, but it’s still not all that good.

Weird aroma of chemicals, koji, and honey. Raspberry is present but understated. Clear orange and headless. Raspberry flavor. Very chemical throughout but most prominent on the back end. A bit like new plastic. All natural ingredients, all artificial flavor.

12 oz. bottle for review from Louis Glunz. It has a good, coppery pale ale color. The head is more bubbly and fizzy than most beers, which I’ll put up to its "grain" bill and vegan fining. I really cannot agree with anyone else that the smell is bad. It has some hops to it, which can make up for a lot of other faults. There is the slight sourness that I have found in other gluten-free beers, which becomes more pronounced as the glass warms up. Still there are hops putting up a front. The beer’s website mentions on citrusy hops, so that may be contributing to the slightly cidery sourness. Since I’m supposed to be watching a different condition, blood sugar, it’s interesting to see the standard ingredient label which shows this has no carbs from sugar (I know, the carbs from alcohol can be just as much a problem), But I do think I could manage with this if I had to (boy, is that damning with faint praise).
