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!

      Hey @Butch68, I also have dermatitis herpetiformis but don't suffer from it anymore. I used to drink Guinness too but I drink Cider now when out on social occasions. I assume you are in Ireland or the UK. If it's any good to you ... 9 White Deer based in Cork brew a range of gluten-free products including a gluten-free Stout. I'm not sure if they are certified though. https://www.9whitedeer.ie/ I haven't come across any certified gluten-free stouts this side of the pond.

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease.  Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too.  is this everyone’s experience?  Can I drink it?  I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant reactions to gluten so can’t try it to see for myself.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
