Nickel Brook Gluten Free

Nickel Brook brewery offers "Penny for your thoughts! Nickel for your thirst!". In the case of their Gluten Free, they also offer, you guessed it, no gluten. In fact, the can says "Gluten Free" four times, and the beer has no other name. A rather direct, if perhaps unimaginative, piece of marketing.

Price at the LCBO: $2.95 for 473mL.

Drinking Impression: Flat, a little bitter, and disappears from the palette almost instantly. Give them some credit, it does taste like a beer. Just not a very good beer.

Would you buy it again: Not without doctor's orders.

Would you drink two in a row: Not without strict doctor's orders and no other beer options.

Best time/place to drink it: ...doctor's orders....

Out of ten: Two.
