Long and short, its made with sorghum, and does not contain wheat or barley,which apparently makes 3.2 million people, suffering from Celiac Disease, super bitchy and not fun to be around. This according to Anheuser. And I always trust health reportings from the people who mess us up.
It really does smell sorghumy and a bit like that shit that sticks to the inside of a lawnmowery smell. But it finishes hoppy and almost creamy.
Verdict: Glad I picked it up. Its worth the experience. I saw this at GABF 2006, however, and I've always said this, if you locate your beer in the center of the GABF, you better have stickers or some other gimmick, because no one will remember what it tasted like.

Is this stuff widely available? I can't imagine it's big in the Nebraska market.

Nebraska is the 3rd largest producer of sorghum. Whereas barley is primarily grown in northern states, i.e. North Dak, and Montana, and seldom in the Good Life. If Nebraska were smart, they would push this beer.
ineed, sorghum, milo, follow corn and beans in production in ne, do they not? they're great places to shoot birds, and probably it gets fed to cows or pigs, if not fermented.
are there any products on the market that ferment alfalfa? that has to taste pretty clean wouldn't you think?
