I can find the blue/black stuff that is simply labeled "Bard's Tale," but I've never seen the Dragon's Gold outside of pictures online..

I saw it at Whole Paycheck but it was labeled just Bard's, not Bard's Tale.

I just bought a 6 pack of Bard's from BevMo. haven't tried it yet. I like Redbridge, but they didn't have it this time.

I'm desperate to find gluten-free beer that actually has some character to it. These rice/corn beers are so weak they taste like water. hops are NOT a problem, so I don't understand why the gluten-free beers are so light on hops and taste. What I'd give for a gluten-free IPA!

If you can find Greens. They have three different types so maybe one would be to your liking. However, they are expensive ($5-$6 a bottle).

I tried them and seem to remember one being a heavier beer. Don't drink them frequently due to the cost.

We shortened the name some time ago from Bard's Tale Dragon's Gold to Bard's Gold for several reasons. Same great beer in new packaging and shorter name.

The reason they are so weak is that the sorghum that replaces barley is not malted. Some are only 3.3% ABV. Only Bard's malts the sorghum for traditional beer flavor and aroma. Remember, malting is a process used in making beer. Malted sorghum is still gluten-free. Bard's is 4.6% ABV.

Ive starting brewing my own and thats another way to do it, its not very hard and it fun too.

Also, I have EZ gluten tested as few regular beers, Corona is less than 10 ppm gluten, budweiser is really high as is Karl Strauss Red trolley. The EZ gluten tests are supposed to pickup wheat, barley or rye down to 10 ppm.

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      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.

      Gluten Issues and Vitamin D

      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/

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      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 react...

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      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.

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      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.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.
