Stupid question about beer

Really stupid question, as promised.  If one opened up a GliadenX capsule, and dissolved the contents in a can of beer, would this remove the gluten?  Would it alter the flavor?  I have always loved, and have had no problems with, gluten removed beers, but can not seem to find any readily available where I live.  It would be nice to be able to go into a brewery, order a nice specialty beer, drop in a capsule, and drink away.  Am I dreaming?!

Actually the enzyme in GliadinX, AN-PEP, was originally used as a clarifying agent called "Clarex" that was used by some major brewers to speed up the brewing process:

It would likely be best to get a beer that has been rendered gluten-free using this enzyme:

and you could also take a GliadinX or two before you drink it.

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
