Mongozo Premium Pilsner (Belgium) 5.0%Gold in a glass with a little less than an inch of off-white head that was fairly resilient for a gluten-free beer. Smelled quite a bit like a typical pilsner at first, a dry sort of hops aroma with some malt-like aroma, sort of like a American Adjunct Lager. Then the slightly sour and a little cheesy aroma I've found in many gluten-free beers. Wow, it tastes remarkably like a typical pilsner or Euro Lager. There is a faint sourness but other than that it's hard to tell the difference between Mongozo Premium Pilsner and any other gluten bearing pilsner: quite impressive.
Note: Brewed in Belgium under license for a brewery from the Netherlands.
This beer should not be tagged as gluten-free, given that barley malt is an ingredient.
ReplyDeleteThe brewer and EU have designated this as a Gluten-Free product and it says so on the label. Gluten can be removed so just because they use barley malt does not mean the beer is not gluten free.
