Rich, hearty and full-bodied gluten-free lager brewed from sorghum. Redbridge has a distinctively fruity hop aroma, a sweet toasted grain flavor and a well-balanced, moderately
hopped finish.

Redbridge is a very clear golden beer with a white head that fades to a thin film and leaves decent lacing. It has a faint, sweet, sorghum aroma with a note of grass. It's very light bodied and watery with a chalky finish. There's hardly any flavor at all. There's a light sweetness in the finish. It tastes like non alcoholic beer. Nothing to see here; move along.

Quite light and refreshing, I enjoyed this for what it was. A little watery but when you're looking for something light this is a good choice!

Wife's friend had this and offered two of these to her. Told me to have one and truthfully, I was not able to finish it. Strange taste to me. Guess it's the non-gluten. Not my kind of beer.

Trying this out as I may need to go gluten free. I so wanted this to be a good alternative. First off it's too carbonated for me. The actual flavor is difficult to pin down, but I'm not sure it's a beer I could have more than one of...which will please my wife. Looking for a better solution.

DATE: February 19, 2022... OCCASION: back from the WMC semifinal loss, we turn to the Office (and I, to this beer) to lift our spirits... GLASSWARE: Baltika stonge... an orange-amber body shows reasonable effervescence that builds a quarter-finger of off-white, sudsy head... looks palatable... light lemon zest, toasted biscuit, faint hard fruits, honey, and cough drop... a rather clean, refreshing, cider-like movement through the palate... its start has a bit of hoppy chatter, while its finish is refreshingly soft and swift... not much of the limited aroma makes it to the flavor profile--what does is honey, pear, apple, wood, and banana... there isn't a lot to its substance, but it does hit the genre's goal well enough... at its ABV%, this wins for a long night of drinking... as a stand-alone, not too much to celebrate... in can be found in most beer stores, so that is also a plus...

Gluten free? Yes? Taste free? Yes! I understand there’s a market for this, but this was almost undrinkable, and got worse as it warmed. Sorghum makes for a funky, musty overall aroma and taste. Blech.

Purchased as a single bottle from Ingles for $1.50. Poured into a nonic pint glass.

L - Clear amber with a one-finger sudsy off-white head. Actually great lacing.
S - Sweet, but not in a sugary way. Herbal. Some kind of fruit, but I can't pin down which one.
T - It tastes like literal raw sugar cane, minus most of the sweetness - but I can tell it's sweet, if that makes any sense at all. Almost tastes of granny smith apple skin, but then it doesn't. A somewhat metallic finish. It doesn't taste objectively bad, though.
F - Medium-light body with nitro-like carbonation. Refreshing. Wet. Crisp.
O - This beer's flavor HAS to be an acquired taste. Not for the reason I see many people drinking it (I don't), but because it doesn't taste bad, but for the reason that I'm not familiar with the flavors present. It's this non-cloying sweetness, with some sort of herbal vibe, minus the herbs. It almost tastes like a sassafras soda, but not in any sort of "exact" sense. It's almost like Malta Goya, but swap the Raisin Bran flavor with some mysterious flavor you've never had that can only be in the area of "molasses" - but not really. Buy it to try it yourself, but I probably won't again.

Love this! Having to be gluten free is the absolute pits and I had no high expectations for this beer. While it doesn't have that pungent beer smell, it's light and smooth and actually tastes great! I was very pleasantly pleased and will definitely buy this brand again. The "beer guy" at my local Kroger said this was the best gluten free beer on the market. Right now, I'll agree!
