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 :)

      Has anyone had terrible TMJ/ Jaw Pain from undiagnosed Celiac?

      My TMJ ended when I lost a middle lower molar. I had an amalgam filling from youth (1960s) that failed and the tooth broke. I had what was left pulled and did not bother to replace it. My bite shifted and the TMJ went away. I just had to be careful eating M&M Peanuts because they would get stuck in the hole.

      Fiber Supplement

      If you don't like prunes, Figs are rich in fiber, with 3-5 dried figs providing about 5 grams.

The total IGA test is given to determine if you are IGA deficient. In the case of IGA deficiency, other IGA tests will b skewed and their scores cannot be trusted. Elevated total IGA can point to other health issues, some of them potentially serious, or it can mean nothing. But it doesn't look like you have celiac disease.

It is not uncommon to test negative for antibodies and even biopsies to still have Celiac Disease.  Many on this forum have gone 10 years testing negative and surviving multiple misdiagnoses before finally being diagnosed as celiac. If trial GFD after all the negative tests are concluded brings improvement, will you continue to eat gluten and suffering since the doctor says you are not sick? Your list of symptoms, mostly unrelated to each other, certainly fits the pattern of celiac disease.  Do you really have nine different diseases, all with cause unknown?
