"I've read other reviews of this beer on other beer sites, and I don't feel so bad slamming this because everybody else has. The nut that thought of this idea should be lock-up in a jail cell full of garlic and see how long he lasts. This is a pale gold beer.....with a garlic clove on the bottom. The aroma is.....surprisingly...........heavy on the garlic. The flavour is......surprisingly.......heavy on the garlic.
I have no choice but on a scale of 1 through 5, to give this 1 garlic clove!"

"I have liked everything else from local producer Brew Brothers and luckily I stumbled onto a 500ml bottle, a little pricey, but oh well.
500 ml flip top clear bottle. Slightly cloudy straw colored beer with a garlic clove floating in the bottom. Cracking the seal, there was an immediate aroma of "straight out of the oven" garlic toast. Pours OK, with a short white head - looks like an average pilsner. Smell is all garlic, very strong yet clean - like the garlic smell from an Italian restarant kitchen. I was expecting a more sour, rancid garlic smell (especially fearing the clear bottle). The first taste actually wasn't too bad. Not as strong as the smell, but it is all garlic and not much else. Basically and average pilsner taste with some salty garlic on top. After a few more swallows, there is a sticky mouthcoating aftertaste of even more garlic. The more you drink, the stronger the garlic flavor becomes and by the time you finish the bottle, it is almost impossible to stomach. Try it for the originality factor only.
To sum it up, very different but it is exactly as advertised, they aren't trying to fool anyone. Tough one to rate, because there is not anything to compare it to."

"Garlic good, beer good; garlic and beer in the same bottle = bad. At least this came in a nice swing top bottle. From the instant the stopper was popped, yikes!! ....rather a strong garlic smell like a punch to the nose. I was expecting "some" hint of garlic but nothing like this. Onward I ventured, pouring the slightly cloudy medium gold, with the modest white head. Coming from the bottom of the bottle was what I thought might be sediment, but I caught it just before "it" went into the glass, "it" turning out to be two slices of garlic. Nice save, and into the loo they went. Aroma was garlic, and the taste was well, garlic. Mouthfeel was hard to judge, my mouth being overwhelmed by the garlic and the aftertaste was garlic. Might've been an okay pilsner but for the garlic. Would not and could not ever drink this again. ps All this garlic had an extreme laxative effect within the hour. Could this be worse than the infamous Chili Beer?"
