Great Gluten-Free Beer


lucia

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I didn't think gluten-free beer would taste very good, and figured that I'd just as well pass. I went out to eat this weekend though with family to a gluten-friendly place, and they were all excited about me trying the gluten-free beer. Turns out it was great!

Redbridge is a crisp lager that tastes like Red Stripe.

Green's is a stout, much like Guinness. My husband even liked it better than Guinness; it doesn't have that bitter aftertaste. I can't wait to try it again!

I was never a beer drinker before, but I love Redbridge, sauerkraut, and sausage baked together. I also use it for "beer butt" chicken. It is delicious.

Just picked up some Green's yesterday...really liked it. The store carried the Amber Ale, Blonde Ale, and Dubbel Dark....really liked the dark. Yum ! Great for summer....they were out of Redbridge though. I have tried Bard's too and thought it was fine...

There's a gluten-free stout??? Wohoo!!!! B) Where do I get it?

I didn't think much of Redbridge. It's too heavily hopped for my taste.

Another great one is St Peter's

Skylark - I know! I (used to) love Guinness.

I guess they don't call it a stout explicitly, but it tastes like one! It's Greens Double Dark Beer.

I don't know where to get it except at the restaurant in Manhattan where I had it (Risoterria), but I'm new to all this. I've never even bought Redbridge.

I can only get Redbridge around here. I did find Bards and it was $12.00 for six. But that Redbridge, it's, to me, like taking shots of straight up mooonshine. It knocks me on my BUTT - I mean, one does.

I'm not sure what's up with that........

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
