Really like this one. Just wish there were more gluten free options

I brewed this for my wife who recently went gluten free. I've brewed other gluten free kits for her but she ikes this one the most. She prefers it to any of the commercially available beers in our area. I ordered a second kit that I'll make for her but I'll add more hops to it. I gave it 4 stars only because it needs more hops IMHO.

One of the better gluten free beers I've had. Even the non GF people enjoyed it

I brew this for a friend of mine that has celiac disease. I add 1LB of candy sugar to the boil to kick it up a little. I also flavor it for him using beer flavoring. I have used: Peach blackberry apricot & raspberry. Raspberry is his favorite and hides the sorghum flavor. If you can't drink regular beer this works quite well.

I'm no expert on GF beers but have had Sorghum based brews before. Compared to what you can find commercially (at least easily) this Amber Ale is similar enough and after it sat in the bottle for a few months the metallic twang from the Sorghum became less and less noticeable (probably more from palate acclimation than it really diminishing). Its a good start if you have tried what is on the shelf and want to make your own. To go beyond Sorghum would likely require malting your own GF grains. Lots of info on this online but way more work! Final product was a little dry and metallic with taste that grows on you.

Ok so this was my first GF beer or any beer that I have used sorghum. I made this batch for a friend that is on a special diet. Of course I kept a few myself to give it a try. The beer was over carbonated and blew a few bottles probably my fault. I used the corn sugar that comes with the kit and had 5.5 gallons. Although my final gravity was 1.014 which was a tad bit higher than I wanted which probably added to the over carbonation. The head built quickly with the added carbonation but dissipated almost as fast. More like a soda. It was still a bit sweet and had a slight vinegary taste. I did not like the beer much but am not sure it it was due to the sorghum or possibly contamination. Although my friend who is (or was) an avid beer drinker enjoyed it i found the slight vinagar taste off putting. Hops were lacking and had little aroma or flavor due to them. I will try this again and compare to see what the taste is hopefully figure out if it were contamination. I am usually very strict on my sterilization practices and never had a contaminated beer before and have about 15 batches under my belt. I will repost my second attempt on results. Three stars is pushing it for my taste but added the extra star for my gluten free friend.

I hesitate to give this only 3 stars as this is a sorghum beer so it is difficult to hold it to the standards of a regular beer. With that said I do think this beer could double the hops and still be a bit under hopped. The distinctive strong sorghum flavor is very overpowering and needs some strong hop to balance. I will make this again but next time I'm considering bittering with warrior and substituting some of the sorghum with brown rice extract.

Turned out better than expected although could have been hopped up a bit more. Unique flavor which caught me a little off guard at first but very enjoyable. Smooth and easy to drink with a refreshing quality. I'd do it again.
