Does anyone know if ALL cider beers are gluten free? How would you be able to tell at a bar especially if it is on tap? I just miss being able to have a beer at a bar with friends, and was thinking that would be a nice subtle way of having a beer with everyone!!! ;)

Woodpecker Cider and Strongbow (it's from England) are gluten free.

Woodchuck cider is gluten free. I believe all flavors of Woodchuck are gluten free. I have seen it on tap in pubs, but I'm not sure that I would trust it. They are wiped down with the same rag used to wipe down the beer taps. Eek.

Cider is made from apples (fermented apple juice). It is gluten-free unless they do something REALLY weird. I've had cider on tap in several pubs and not had a problem, although Guhlia has a point about possible cross contamination.

If I'm not mistaken, I vaguely remember reading the label in grocery store for Hornsby's Hard Cider, and was sad to see that there was barley malt in it? I could be wrong.....I'll look again next time or search for website....I would love to drink a Hornsby's again.

This is so great! On vacation recently a buddy of mine asked if I could have cider on tap and I just said "when in doubt do without", but now I'm happy and I'm gonna try it!

All Woodchuck flavors are gluten-free - many bars have it in bottles - even if they don't have it on tap (avoids the CC issue!)

Even with it on tap, I've never had a problem.

Strongbow too!

Enjoy!

if it has barley malt, that would fit my definition of "really weird" :D Apple cider is supposed to be apples. WHY do these people have to add stuff where it doesn't belong? (rant over)

I bought a six pack of Hornsby's Hard Crisp Apple Cider and believe that it has gluten in it. I've had the usual symptoms. Has anyone contacted them?

Yup, quite a few ciders have barley malt in them. Cider is one of those products where you have to know which brand to get.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      When I had my Shingles attack in 2019 my vitamin D was at 49 ng/ml. Doctor gave me an antiviral shot and 2 tubes of lidocaine. Sufficient intake of vitamin D and the antiviral essential mineral Zinc can help reduce risk of viral infections. I've been taking Zinc Glyconate lozenges since 2004 for airborne viruses. I have not had a cold since,...

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      Thank you for your thoughtful contribution, @Tazfromoz. I live in the UK and the National Health Service funds free vaccines for people deemed to be at heightened risk. I was pleasantly surprised to discover that as a coeliac in my 50s I was eligible for this vaccine, and didn't think twice when it was offered to me. Soon after diagnosis I suffered...

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      My understanding, and ex I erience is that we coeliacs are likely to suffer more extreme reactions from viruses. Eg we are more likely to be hospitalised with influenza. So, sadly, your shingles may be worse because you are coeliac. So sorry you had to go through this. My mother endured shingles multiple times. She was undiagnosed with coeliac disease until...

      Celiac Screening

      Hi all, Looking for some advice. I started having some symptoms this past summer like night sweats and waking at 4 am and felt quite achy in my joints. I was training heavily for cycling for a few weeks prior to the onset of these symptoms starting. I have had low Ferratin for about 4 years (started at 6) and usually sits around 24 give or take. I was...

      Cold/flu or gluten poisoning?

      Cold/flu or gluten poisoning? Hello. I've had another similar episode. I find it very difficult to differentiate between the symptoms of a cold or flu and those caused by gluten poisoning. In fact, I don't know if my current worsening is due to having eaten something that disagreed with me or if the cold I have has caused my body, which is hypersensitive...

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      Thank you for your thoughtful contribution, @Tazfromoz. I live in the UK and the National Health Service funds free vaccines for people deemed to be at heightened risk.  I was pleasantly surprised to discover that as a coeliac in my 50s I was eligible for this vaccine, and didn't think twice when it was offered to me.  Soon after diagnosis I suffered mystery symptoms of burning nerve pain, following two separate dermatomes, and one GP said he felt that I had contracted shingles without the rash aka zoster sine herpete.  Of course, without the rash, it's a difficult diagnosis to prove, but looking back I think he was completely spot on.  It was miserable and lasted about a year, which I gather is quite typical. For UK coeliacs reading this, it is worth having a conversation with your GP if you haven't been vaccinated against shingles yet, if you are immunosuppressed or over 50. I have just googled this quickly - it is a helpful summary which I unashamedly took from AI, short for time as I am this morning!   My apologies. In the UK, coeliac patients aren't automatically eligible for the shingles jab unless they're severely immunosuppressed or over the general age for vaccination (currently 50+) but Coeliac UK recommends discussing the vaccine with a GP due to potential splenic dysfunction, which can increase risk, even if not routine for all coeliacs. Eligibility hinges on specific criteria like weakened immunity (chemo, certain meds) or age, with the non-live Shingrix vaccine offered in two doses to those deemed high-risk, often starting from age 18 for the immunocompromised.

She was undiagnosed with coeliac disease until she was 65. Me at 45. I've had the new long lasting vaccine. It knocked me around badly, but worth it to avoid shingles.

      Hi all,  Looking for some advice. I started having some symptoms this past summer like night sweats and waking at 4 am and felt quite achy in my joints. I was training heavily for cycling for a few weeks prior to the onset of these symptoms starting. I have had low Ferratin for about 4 years (started at 6) and usually sits around 24 give or take. I was doing some research and questioned either or not I might have celiac disease (since I didn’t have any gastric symptoms really). My family doctor ran blood screening for celiac. And my results came back: Tissue Transglutaminase Ab IgA HI 66.6 U/mL Immunoglobulin IgA 1.73 g/ My doctor then diagnosed me with celiac and I have now been gluten free for 3 months. In this time I no longer get night sweats my joint pain is gone and I’m still having trouble sleeping but could very much be from anxiety. I was since referred to an endoscopy clinic to get a colonoscopy and they said I should be getting a biopsy done to confirm celiac. In this case I have to return to eating gluten for 4-6 weeks before the procedure. Just wanted some advice on this. I seem to be getting different answers from my family physician and from the GI doctor for a diagnosis.    Thanks,
