Cider On Tap?

I'm going to a bar this weekend where there is cider on tap. Do you think this is safe? I know that cider is naturally gluten free. The only other thing that this bar serves is beer. Could there be CC for cider on tap? I know nothing about bars and normally order wine but there will sadly not be any there....

I have no idea about whether it's safe or not. But no wine?? A bar with no wine? Huh?!!

I have ordered it before. Beer doesn't come out of the same spout as the cider. Each keg has its own spout.

Do bars ever change which spouts are for whatever drinks? Again, I know nothing about bars.

Also are all ciders gluten free? I heard a rumor that some have barley malt?? :-/

I've been wondering this too. All I can think of is cleaning the lines (if they're shared?) and if they use the same cloth to wipe down all the taps? Must vary by bar I suppose.

True.  It is not a cider.  It is a flavored beer

It is true that some ciders may have malt added.  There is a local micro-brewery near me that also makes cider.  They told me they add malt to give it body.  I suspect most ciders are gluten-free, but if it were me, I would ask.  BTW I know that Strongbow is gluten-free.

Jeez, thanks for the heads up on malt in cider. Whyyyyy?!
I asked my brother, who works in a bar, and he said obviously it would vary by bar but changing the lines between beer/cider taps would be complicated and he doesn't see why it would happen.
No answer on the communal wipe down cloth but having seen the state of his bathroom I'm not hopeful (eww). I suppose with cider, unlike ale, the tap doesn't need to be kept below the surface of the drink? So it could just pour straight into the glass?

An update from my trip to the bar - my boyfriend said that sometimes they do not have cider, so we're assuming that they change the taps. I could have probably gotten a bottle of their cider if I knew it was safe, but the bar was packed when we got there. Not the best time to ask someone about ingredients. So I decided to just not drink that night. No big deal. I wasn't really in the mood anyway. I reasoned that I'll save the calories and have a cupcake this week :)

      Fighting for a name

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!
