I know this has probably been answered 1,000 times on this board, but I just got diagnosed last week. After coming to the realization that everything I eat is now off limits, I NEED a Beer. :o Unfortunatly, the several cases I have in the basement fridge for company is off limits. :angry:

Does anyone know of any gluten-free Beer options? :D

Romapo Valley, New Grist, and Bard's Tale all make gluten free beers. I find it easier to just enjoy a hard cider. Woodchuck is gluten free. It's much cheaper than gluten free beer and, though it may be an acquired taste, it satisfies the beer urge for me.

My favorite is New Grist, but will probably not get it in Arizona until around the 4th of July. I tasted it in Las Vegas. It is brewed in Milwaukee at the Lakefront Brewery. You can go to their website and see if it is in your area. I have tried Rampano and don't like it unless I throw a lime in it. The New Grist is the closest I have found to a real beer taste. It has 5.7% alcohol content.

You should grab a copy of the latest "Living Without" magazine, as it has a big article analyzing the best gluten free beers.

Thanks Guys!

I picked up some New Grist today at the local Whole Foods Market. I can't bring it onto the golf course tonight because it won't be cold enough but I'll have one when I get back. Looks like I'll be drinking rum off the beverage cart instead. :D

Hi Beer Lovers!

Did you know you can order beer made without gluten (gluten free beer) online?

The shipping is expensive, but then again so is driving to the brewery! ;)

Cheers!

Your a lucky devil Mike. Let me know what you think about the taste. I have never been a beer drinker, but am down to that as I can't find a B & J wine cooler in AZ without the malt. I would just like one when I sit on the patio on a hot day. I can no longer drink whiskey with diet coke because of the corn. And I have never been a Vodka drinker, so I have not looked to hard for the potato vodka. I just thought a gluten-free beer would probably taste great with the Arizona heat. So, don't forget to give us all your opinion.

      I don't see how cornstarch could alter the test results. Where did you read that?

      For pain relief I take a combination of Thiamine (Benfotiamine), Pyridoxine B 6, and Cobalamine B12.  The combination of these three vitamins has analgesic effects.  I have back pain and this really works.  The B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted.   Hope this helps!  Keep us posted on your results!

      Welcome to the forum, @Xravith. I experienced similar symptoms before my diagnosis.  Mine were due to the loss of vitamins and minerals, essential nutrients we must get from our food.  With Celiac Disease, the intestinal lining, made up of thousands of villi, gets damaged and cannot absorb essential vitamins and minerals, especially the eight B vitamins.  The loss of Thiamine B 1 can cause muscle loss, inability to gain weight, edema (swelling), fatigue, migraines and palpitations.  Low thiamine can cause Gastrointestinal Beriberi with symptoms of nausea, abdominal pain and bloating.   Thiamine is only stored for a couple of weeks, so if you don't absorb enough from food daily, as the thiamine deficiency worsens physical symptoms gradually worsen.  If you're eating lots of carbs (like gluten containing foods usually do), you need more thiamine to process them (called high calorie malnutrition).  Thiamine works with all the other B vitamins, so if you're low in one, you're probably getting low in the others, too, and minerals like iron, magnesium, zinc, and calcium, as well as Vitamin D..  Talk to your doctor about checking for nutritional deficiencies.  Most doctors rarely recognize vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially in thiamine. Get a DNA test to see if you carry any Celiac genes.  If you do not have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably IBS.  If you do have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably Celiac.  I was misdiagnosed with IBS for years before my Celiac diagnosis.   Keep us posted on your progress. P. S. Deficiency in thiamine can cause false negatives on antibody tests, as can diabetes and anemia.

      No she didn't because if I want to ask I have to pay 700$ for 1 hour appointment so I couldn't even ask. I read that fillers like cornstash can alter the result and tylenol contains it so that's why I tried to find someone who can answer.

      Did the GI doc give you any rational for stopping the Tylenol during the gluten challenge? I have never heard of this before and I can't imagine a good reason for it. Ibuprofen, maybe, because it is an anti inflammatory but acetaminophen?  I don't see that it would have any impact on the test results to take Tylenol.
