I Had A Beer In A Public Place!

Guess what I did today? I went to Busch Gardens Williamsburg with the family and I couldn't believe it when I saw RedBridge beer behind the counter! I was so excited. It was before the counter opened, so I sat near enough that I could see when it opened, and as soon as that sign turned to open - I was the first customer.

And I had a beer with my turkey leg (BG had sent me some gluten-free options for dining), and I don't know why, but it was so significant to me. I hadn't done that since October 2001.

And for those of you who have not tried Redbridge yet, it was quite tasty. I have had Bards Tale, Rampona Valley, and Grist previously, but I think Redbridge is the best by far.

Well, just wanted to share my special day with everyone.

That is so awesome! I am going to Busch Gardens Williamsburg this summer, and I will contact them to get a gluten free foods list like you did, it didn't even occur to me that they may have one.

Very cool. It took me 3 years of trying to get that list. So if you don't get a response before you need it, let me know and I'll send you what they sent me.

This is great. We have an annual pass to BGW. Love Apollo's Chariot, Loch Ness, and Alpengiest.

Hey Richard,

We have passes too. Enjoy the new "Griffon" before you have turkey legs, BBQ chicken, and Redbridge!

Gina,

I actually had the same experience (PF Changs in Richmond, Va) about a month ago. I had been drinking Redbridge since it came out last December but had not found it while dining out until recently. I can appreciate how nice it is to have a meal and a beer.

Tom,

That's good to know. I wonder if PF Change in Virginia Beach would be as good? I'll have to check it out. Thanks!

Yep my dad says (I don't drink) that Redbridge tastes kind of like Corona to him. A few restaurants where I live offer Redbridge as a beer option.

I see you are in New Hampshire. Merrimack, NH is the only AB location that produces Redbridge at the present time. I just read something on an NPR website that makes reference to the brewing process and how they make a batch every other week. According to the article the line shuts down for a period of time so it can be cleaned before starting the process. I would not be surprised if it is in more resturants there.

I would like a copy of the list Busch Gardens sent to you. Would you mind sending it to me? My email address is aasmith@net-change.com. If you have access to a fax, my fax # is (252)384-4800. We're going this weekend and I would really appreciate it!

Can you get it sped up crossing the border to Canada? Have heard lots about this beer and wanting to try it. Maybe Christmas? (Note I don't mention the year!)

Glad to hear you enjoyed it.

      Simple Mills and Made Good Foods Products May Contain Gluten Levels Above the FDA's Allowable Limit of 20 ppm

      I recently purchased Simple Mills crunchy almond flour chocolate chip cookies and chocolate chocolate chip cookies and had reactions to both. I learned of my gluten sensitivity 3 1/2 months ago and struggled with finding gluten-free foods but, with my husbands help, I have felt better than I have in many years. After eating these cookies my symptoms returned...

      Pain in the right side of abdomen

      @Heatherisle, You have good reason to worry. Ask the doctors to do an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity Assay to test for Thiamine B1 deficiency. Thiamine deficiency is frequently found in B12 deficiency. Deficiencies in all the B vitamins are common with malabsorption due to Celiac disease. Thiamine can run out in as little as three days...

      @Heatherisle, You have good reason to worry.   Ask the doctors to do an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity Assay to test for Thiamine B1 deficiency.  Thiamine deficiency is frequently found in B12 deficiency.  Deficiencies in all the B vitamins are common with malabsorption due to Celiac disease.  Thiamine can run out in as little as three days.   Thiamine deficiency symptoms can be mistaken for other diseases such as MS and Guillian-Barre Syndrome.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms include pain in legs and abdominal pain as well as depression and gastrointestinal symptoms. Thiamine B1, Pyridoxine B6 and Cobalamine B 12 together relieve nerve pain.

      Just an update on my daughter. She is still in hospital and getting quite depressed about everything. She had a CT scan of head and chest to rule out stroke in view of her symptoms. Thankfully there is no evidence of that so they now want to do an MRI to rule out MS so this is freaking her out and it’s not doing me much good either!!!They’re also going to do further blood tests to check vitamin levels. My husband and I are trying to reassure her the best we can that hopefully it’s just her body’s reaction to having the Vitamin B medication and it’s affecting her nervous system etc. Think the tingling has subsided but still having some lower back and pelvic pain and some leg pain. Thanks for reading and my apologies if I sound paranoid.
