Please post here any of your favorite tried-and-true gluten-free beer recipes that you're comfortable sharing on the wiki. I need the name, batch size, style, grain bill, hop schedule, yeast, fermentation time and temps, any special instructions, your name, brew date, and tasting notes. Pics are also appreciated.
 
Witless (Belgian Wit-style) (First brewed March 2010)
5 gallon batch
6 lbs Sorghum Extract (1 year-old 3 lb jars from House of Hops)
1 lb Rice syrup solids
2 oz Strisselspalt, 60 minutes
1 oz coriander 10 minutes
1 oz bitter orange peel, 1 minute
Spoonful of molasses
4 oz Maltodextrin
Yeast: Safbrew T-58

Fermented for 3 weeks at 68 F.

I've made this beer several times, and it is consistently a favorite. Spicy notes from the yeast, hint of coriander and citrus. I usually carbonate this one fairly high (3+ volumes CO2), so there is a significant acidic bite from the carbonation. Best batch was with a late addition of the sorghum and rice at 30 minutes.
 
Mild Ale (British Mild) (First brewed Jan 2012)
5 gallon batch
3.1 lbs sorghum extract
1 lb D2 sugar syrup
.5 lbs honey
4 oz maltodextrin
.8 oz EKG (60 min)
.2 oz EKG (15 min)
pitched S-04 around 70 F
Bottled 3 weeks later with 5 oz table sugar.

There's some nice caramel flavors from the D2.
 
Pale Mild (British Pale Mild) (First brewed march 2011)
3 lbs Sorghum extract
.5 lbs Demerara
.5 lbs Brown Sugar
.25 lbs dark amber candi sugar
4 oz Maltodextrin
.7 oz East Kent Goldings (55 min)
.2 oz East Kent Goldings (15 min)
Spoonful of molasses
Yeast: Safale S-04

Fermented 3 weeks at 68 F

This is very similar to the mild ale, but much lighter in color. The hops come through a bit more on this one. It is a really good, easy drinking session beer.
 
Hefe (Hefeweizen) (First brewed July 2011)
6 lbs sorghum extract
1 lb demerara
4 oz Maltodextrin
.8 oz Tettnang (60 minutes)
Fermented 3 weeks at around 70
Danstar Munich wheat beer yeast

My regular beer drinking friends thought this tasted very much like a real Hefe. Nice banana notes from the yeast, very foamy head.
