Most gluten free beers are sorghum based. This tends to give the beer a cider taste, reminiscent of a wine or sake. This one gets it's base from sweet potato and millet which should provide a more "full bodied mouth feel"
Glutenator is tawny in color with a nose of piney hops and yams. The flavor is mostly sweet grains with a clean, sorghum-free, lightly hoppy finish.
It will be bottled this week, and should be in the cold cases on Friday, March 9. It will be in Epic's standard 22-ounce bottle will cost $5.89.
Cheers!

I get requests for good Gluten free recommendations all the time. I hope it is good!
Was this a collaboration beer? Snake River Brewing released The Glutenator on Feb 2nd.

It's not a collaborative effort. I have a feeling lawyers are already on the case.
So my gf and I tried this. It is far better than the sorghum beers I have had before, but not as good as most of EPIC's other beers. Also, both times we drank this we had bad hangovers the next day.
