The View Was Talking About gluten-free Beer Just Now

I was calling another manufacturer about gluten-free stuff and then I had to hang up cuz I was hearing Rosie talking to Elisabeth about how Elisabeth learned she was a Celiac. She was talking about how she was feeling great when she was on Survivor and away from all the gluten products and that is what preciptated her getting tested.

They featured a gluten free beer from Anhauser Busch which is the first beer she has had in a long time.

I hope she continues to keeps talking about this subject on air. Even if she is a republican :)

Elizabeth if you are listening keep featuring gluten-free products. This is a great way to get the word out, support manufacturers that making gluten-free products, to convince other manufacturers there is money to be made by marketing to us.

I was rather disappointed in the time allotted for celiac disease. It was maybe a whole 5 mins, if that, and they spend a good share of that time slopping beer all over. I do not think that people actually could have gotten any good advice from that tiny time frame. I was very disappointed and remembered very quickly why I have never liked The View.

So my husband was right :blink: . I ridiculed him a week ago, because he mentioned it to me. And I said, yeah, like the last time somebody mentioned to you, that Amstel light is glutenfree and then I had a glutenaccident. I didn't see the show. Can you tell me more? How do I know, which one it is from Busch brand. Do they say glutenfree on the bottle. Or wheat, rye, oats or barley free for that matter?

Thanks for the info, Stef

The beer is called Redbridge. Looking at the label on the website, it says "beer made from sorghum" and "made without wheat or barley." I don't see that it says "gluten-free" but maybe that is because the FDA hasn't issued a rule yet saying when manufacturers are permitted to put that on a food that traditionally does include gluten. The proposed rule about that is now out for public comment.

They do say on the website: "Redbridge is made without wheat or barley, so the approximately 3.2 million consumers who are unable to drink beer made with barley due to Celiac Disease or because they follow a wheat-free or gluten-free diet can once again enjoy a great tasting beer." So it sounds safe.

If you are 21, you can get into the site and input your zip code to see where you can buy the stuff.

Has anyone tried any of the other gluten-free beers out there, like Bard's or New Grist? I'm not that fond of Budweiser, so I wonder if I will like Redbridge.

I sipped at Bards last week and it was great. I didn't try New Grist. Never heard of it :unsure: . I just tried to find out that Redbridge beer, but I couldn't find anything in our area. My husband says, he knows where we could buy it around here. It's just strange, that I can't find it with the zip code locator on the internet. :blink:

I just got an article sent to me about the former CEO of Pabst is just now heading up this gluten free brewery called Bard's Tale Beer in Lee's Summit, Missouri. Bard's Tale Beer makes its product from sorghum.

They intend to give competitor Anheuser-Busch's sorghum-based beer Redbridge beer that was introduced last month some competition.

The more competition the better for us. I guess this could mean some lower prices down the road perhaps and a serious approach to providing better products. I haven't tried any yet but maybe I should.

I suggest doing a search for Redbridge on this site...there are numerous threads out there on this delightful topic...gluten free beer! :)

We have New Grist and Redbridge at home. I am the Celiac and don't even like beer, but its nice to have to cook with and Eric likes to drink it...so he can kiss me ;)

I have a feeling that the older gluten-free beers - New Grist, Rampo Valley, and Bard's Tale, are going to find that they are the ones squeezed by the competition of the AB Redbridge release, since AB has a *much* larger advertising budget. :angry:

I finally got some Bards tale from Portland last week and it was great. Had not had a beer since last June. I am very excited to try the new beer from Anhauser Busch. Even though I am a repulican <_<

The prices are coming down and it is not because of Bard's. Actually Bard's and New Grist were out months before Redbridge. Redbridge is the "new kid" on the block. During a visit to the in-laws in NC over Christmas I went to a health food store and "all" three brands were present in one display. I have only tasted New Grist and Redbridge. I did not get the Bard's because it was about $11.50 a six-pack, almost twice the price of what I can get the Redbridge for. I thought the Redbridge tasted very good and I have had my share of beer in the years prior to my diagnosis. The New Grist was not bad when it was the only one I could get but now that has changed and I can shop around. I think since AB is so large then it can produce and sell their product cheaper. What I expect to see down the road are more brewers experimenting with gluten free and I see better tasting and cheaper products in the future. I for one was glad to see AB enter the market because it's sheer size gave much needed recognition to Celiac awareness.

I absolutely love Redbridge. At one of the local liquor/wine stores in Boston that I frequent, the A-B is priced at $7.99 and the Bard's is priced at $11.99...both great products but going on price A-B wins. I like Dragon's Gold but 12 bones + deposit is still a lot - even for a craft beer. Hopefully, they will adjust their price down the line.

Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients. The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus! Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces! Considering...

      I think, after reading this, that you areso traumatized by not being able yo understand what your medical advisors have been  what medical conditions are that you would like to find a group of people who also feel traumatized who would agree with you and also support you. You are on a crusade much as the way the US Cabinet  official, the Health Director of our nation is in trying to change what he considers outdated and incorrect health advisories. He does not have the education, background or experience to be in the position he occupies and is not making beneficial decisions. That man suffered a terrible trauma early in his life when his father was assonated. We see now how he developed and worked himself into a powerful position.  Unless you are willing to take some advice or  are willing to use a few of the known methods of starting on a path to better health then not many of us on this Celiac Forum will be able to join you in a continuing series of complaints about medical advisors.    I am almost 90 years old. I am strictly gluten free. I use 2 herbs to help me stay as clear minded as possible. You are not wrong in complaining about medical practitioners. You might be more effective with a clearer mind, less anger and a more comfortable life if you would just try some of the suggestions offered by our fellow celiac volunteers.

      Thus has got to STOP , medical bit believing us! I literally went through 31 years thinking it was just a food allergy as its downplayed by medical if THEY weren't the ones who diagnosed us! Im positive for HLA-DQ2 which is first celiac patient per Iran and Turkey. Here in the States especially in Cali its why do you feel that way? Why do you think your celiac? Your not eating gluten so its something else.Medical caused me depression. I thought I was safe with my former pcp for 25 years considering i thought everything I went through and going through will be available when I get fired again for health. Health not write-ups my health always come back when you're better.Im not and being tossed away at no fault to my own other than shitty genes.I was denied disability because person said he didn't know how to classify me! I said Im celiac, i have ibs, hernia, sciatica, high blood pressure, in constant pain have skin and eye issues and menopause intensified everything. With that my celiac nightmare began to reprove my disregarded disease to a bunch of clowns who think they are my careteam when they said I didn't have...I feel Im still breathing so I can fight this so no body else has to deal with this nightmare. Starting over with " new care team" and waisting more time on why I think I am when diagnosed in 1994 before food eliminated from my diet. P.s everything i went through I did write to medical board, so pretty sure I will continue to have a hard time.

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      Are Lindt chocolate balls gluten free?

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.
