Notes: Sorghum has a sour/metallic after taste. For my first GF beer, I decided to brew something that would play along with that aftertaste, rather than have it be out of place in a traditional beer style.
Grapefruit and Lactobacillus each have a tinny, sour flavor note. Brett is the main fermentation strain because of it's well-known prickly pineapple profile (also metallic and tinny).
The goal here was to use sorghum's well-known flaws to accentuate the character of the beer, rather than fight to mask them. |
