My distributor just called me and let me know that the new Red Bridge sorghum beer will be delivered tomorrow and the price will be $29.99 for a case. For reference, normal beer around here is about $20 a case, Mike's Hard Lemonade is about $27 a case. Bard's Tale sells for about $43 a case. Woo-Hoo!!! This time they were sure they would be getting it in tomorrow. He called their distributor to make sure before calling me. :) The distributor is Brass Rail Beverage in Campbelltown, PA, just in case anyone is in the area and interested.

I am so jealous!!!

How did you figure out where it would be stocked? Did you just ask around?

I really hope to see some near me soon -- in the meantime, drink a toast to us when you throw back your Friday evening beer tomorrow! :D

The distributor actually told my husband about the beer. We had never heard of it before. They've been expecting it in now for about a week and a half. Arrival was gauranteed for tomorrow though. I'm sure you can ask your local distributor to order some in... It's an Anhueser-Busch beer. Oh, and I called A-B today and they said it is definitely gluten free. Yea!!!

Yeah, definitely a good deal on gluten free beer. I called A-B tonight and they confirmed that it is definitely gluten free. Yea!!! I'll post tomorrow when they get it in. Hopefully we can get Outback to carry this one since it's so much cheaper. I think they all get it from Kirchner's in Lancaster. Maybe I'll have to do some checking around on that.

Should I take a drive or will you buy them out this afternoon? :D:D:D

Wegmans should have this also by the first of next month, I can't wait.

I will definitely be going out there this afternoon. We've dubbed today as "Red Bridge Day". I never in a million years thought that I could be so excited over beer.

It's here!!! It's delicious!!! It tastes similar to a Heineken and Rolling Rock mix. It has no bite and is slightly lighter than Bard's Tale. All in all, very good. I'll let you guys know how it tastes when it's actually cold. Right now it's kind of sort of cold. Still great! Woo-Hoo!!!!

BTW, it was the projected $29.99, significantly cheaper than all of the other gluten free beers.

:) I have been looking for beer since July and the local liqor store come up with one made in Milwaukee.

The name is New Grist made by Lakefront Brewery. I finely got ahold of some as they sell out as fast as they get it in which surprised me as I live on the western slope in Colorado in a small town. I had a bottle and it taste like real beer. This is something others may want to check out. They have a web site

www.lakefrontbrewery.com click on New Grist. The beer is also made with sorghum and rice extract. Cheers to all.

Hawkeye, if you call your liquor store they will likely order you what you want and reserve it for you. The Bard's Tale Beer is a much richer beer with a full flavor and a nice bite to it. New Grist is kind of more like a light beer in comparison, still good though. Red Bridge tastes more like a mainstream bar beer with a slightly perfume-like flavor such as Heinekin. Most distributors should be able to get Red Bridge since it's made by Anhueser-Busch.

      Buckwheat

      I agree, there can be contamination at many points--milling is another possible source of contamination for any flours.

      Keep in mind that with manufactured food products, "gluten free" doesn't equate to no gluten. Things that are naturally gluten free can be cross-contaminated with gluten in the field, in shipping and in processing. In the U.S. companies can use the gluten free label as long as the product doesn't exceed 20ppm of gluten. That amount still may cause a reaction in some people.

      Inconclusive results

      By deanna1ynne · Posted

      Dd10 was tested for celiac four years ago bc two siblings were dx’d (positive labs and biopsies). Her results at the time were positive ema  and ttg (7x the UL), but a negative biopsy. We checked again three months later and her ttg was still positive (4x the UL), but ema and biopsy were negative. Doc said it was “potential celiac” and to keep eating gluten, but we were concerned about harming her growth and development while young and had her go gluten-free because we felt the labs and ema in particular were very suggestive of early celiac, despite the negative biopsies. She also had stomach aches and lethargy when eating it. We just felt it’d be better to be safe than sorry. Now, four years later, she doesn’t want to be gluten-free if she doesn’t “have to be,” so underwent a 12 week gluten challenge. She had labs done before starting and all looked great (celiac panel all negative, as expected.) Surprisingly, she experienced no noticeable symptoms when she began eating gluten again, which we felt was a positive sign. However, 12 weeks in, her labs are positive again (ttg 4x the UL and ema positive again as well). Doc says that since she feels fine and her previous two biopsies showed nothing, she can just keep eating gluten and we could maybe biopsy again in two years. I was looking up the ema test and the probability of having not just one but two false positives, and it seems ridiculously low.  Any advice? Would you biopsy again? She’s old enough at this point that I really feel I need her buy-in to keep her gluten-free, and she feels that if the doc says it’s fine, then that’s the final word — which makes me inclined to biopsy again and hope that it actually shows damage this time (not because I want her to have celiac like her sisters, but because I kind of think she already does have it, and seeing the damage now would save her more severe damage in the long run that would come from just continuing to eat gluten for a few more years before testing again.)  Our doc is great - we really like him. But we are very confused and want to protect her. One of her older sibs stopped growing and has lots of teeth problems and all that jazz from not catching the celiac disease sooner, and we don’t want to get to that point with the younger sis. fwiw- she doesn’t mind the biopsy at all. It’s at a children’s hospital and she thinks it’s kind of fun. So it’s not like that would stress her out or anything.

      Thanks for the replies. I already use a gluten-free brand of buckwheat flakes I occasionally get itchy bumps. I'm still reviewing all my food products. I occasionally eat prepackaged gluten-free crackers and cookies, so I'll stop using those. I use buckwheat flakes and Doves Farm flour as a base for baking. Would you recommend eliminating those as well? It's a constant search.

      Frequent nausea after gluten-free diet

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Gluten free food is not fortified with vitamins and minerals as regular food is.  Vitamin deficiencies are common especially in recently diagnosed persons,  Get a 25(OH)Vitamin D blood test. And work on raising it.  The safe upper blood level is around 200 nmol/L.    "Low serum levels of 25(OH)D have been associated with increased risk of autoimmune disease onset and/or high disease activity. The role of vitamin D in autoimmune diseases   🏋️‍♂️Good job!   I find the commercial milk will give me mild stomach burn at night, while pasture/grassfed only milk does not bother me at all.  While you are healing, listen to your body.  If it hurts to eat something, eat something else.  You may be able to eat it later, or maybe it is just not good for you.  Lower your Omega 6 to 3 ratio of what you eat.  Most omega 6 fatty acids are inflammation causing.    The standard american diet omega 6:3 ratio is estimated at upward of 14:1.  Thats why fish oil works
