So, being a beer girl at heart, and being back in college where beer is life, I was wondering if anyone out there knows a health food store or something like that in VT (burlington area or anywhere in the state) that carries New Grist or another kind of gluten free beer. i miss my beer. :angry:

New here...hope I'm posting correctly. Anyway Budweiser makes a wheat free beer. Don't know if Budweiser is an East Coast thing or not. There is such a thing as potato vodka... Anyway, not sure if I'm gluten intolerant still have to do the EnterLab test but father is Celiac and loves potato vodka! B)

Contact the place where you can purchase beer, they would be able to get it in for you.

Red Bridge is made by Budwiser it is made from sorghum

New Grist, Bard's Tale and Red Bridge are all gluten free. All Vodka's are safe because they are filtered.....some people say no but everything I've read says the filtering process elimintes any protiens. Try and Vodka and Cranberry or fruit juice........I drink the Bard's Tale (dragon's gold in on the label). The liquor store in IL carry's it but not a lot of it, I order it by the case and just keep it on hand so I'm not running around looking for it when the time happens.

If you go to www.redbridge.com somewhere on the website it has a store locater...it worked for me. I was able to find several local stores that carried it. Hope it helps and you find something soon!

Kaz, I buy Redbridge at my local Hannafords. You have Hannafords in Vermont, right?

I was very shocked/pleased the first time I found the Redbridge there. They don't have a huge supply, but routinely have 2 or 3 sixpacks tucked in alongside the other Anheiser-Busch products. I think that Redbridge is pretty decent (also like New Grist, personally.)

Good luck!

      I did ... But aren't we going to be vitamin deficienct if we are not eating due to being sick ?? If the food we eat is gluten free and we have other sensitivities , how do we get out of the cycle??  Thank you

      I assume that you already know that genetic testing for celiac disease cannot be used to confirm a celiac diagnosis. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. It can be used to rule out celiac disease with a high degree of confidence, however, in the case where the genetic testing is negative for the genes. Until and unless you are actually diagnosed with celiac disease I would not raise this as an issue with family. However, if you are diagnosed with celiac disease through blood antibody testing and/or endoscopy with positive biopsy I would suggest you encourage first degree relatives to also purse testing because there is a significant chance (somewhere betwee 10% and almost 50%, depending on which studies you reference) that they will also have or will develop active celiac disease. Often, there are symptoms are absent or very minor until damage to the small bowel lining or other body systems becomes significant so be prepared that they may blow you off. We call this "silent celiac disease".

      If you were off gluten for two months that would have been long enough to invalidate the celiac blood antibody testing. Many people make the same mistake. They experiment with the gluten free diet before seeking formal testing. Once you remove gluten from the diet the antibodies stop being produced and those that are already in circulation begin to be removed and often drop below detectable levels. To pursue valid testing for celiac disease you would need to resume gluten consumption equivalent to the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread daily for at least two weeks, preferably longer. These are the most recent guidelines for the "gluten challenge". Without formal testing there is no way to distinguish between celiac disease and gluten sensitivity since their symptoms overlap. However, celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the small bowel lining, not true of gluten sensitivity. There is no test available for gluten sensitivity so celiac disease must first be ruled out. By the way, elevated liver enzymes was what led to my celiac diagnosis almost 25 years ago.

      Then it does not seem to me that a gluten-related disorder is at the heart of your problems, unless that is, you have refractory celiac disease. But you did not answer my question about how long you had been eating gluten free before you had the blood antibody test for celiac disease done.
