Aroma: “Strong cider-like aroma and sweetness with notes of bubble gum and some fruity esters (pear and apple). Belgian phenolic yeast aromatics— particularly clove. Notes of cane sugar.”

Flavor: “The phenolic yeast is not playing well with the sorghum flavors and aromas. Reminiscent of a dry cider, with very subtle Belgian ester character (pear and bubble gum). Finishes dry and astringent with a medium-high carbon- ation and low hops bitterness.”

Overall: “Sweet yet dry and tart. The green apple and cider-like characteris- tics detract from the beer experience, and the finish is astringent. Lacks much of any Belgian yeast character, as fruitiness is certainly grain-derived. Much more cidery than beery. The tanginess helps differentiate it from other gluten-free beers for those looking for that sort of thing.”
