I am curious about this beer and if its even something i would like. I was (in my former life)an avid beer drinker. But i drank bud light or blue light- Does anyone on here know what this tastes close to? I would appreciate it- Not that i have even seen it in my area but im really good at hunting gluten free stuff down lol.

I liked heavier beers in my previous life. I like Redbridge. Its light and like all gluten-free beers, a bit sweet. It is not as sweet as New Grist. Bard's is another beer that is in a lot of the country. You can check on Anheiser Busch (spelling?) website to see where it is sold. If you haven't had a regular beer in a while, these taste better. :)

Also, don't judge on the first sip. Sometimes things taste different then we expect, not bad, but different.

The funny thing about this beer is that it actually tastes better very very cold right from the bottle rather than pouring it into a glass or even a frosty mug. I found I didn't really care for it and have changed to Hard Cider... I really like the Hornsby's brand. It gives me the sames giggles.... and tastes better than the Redbridge.

I really prefer Bard's to Redbridge. I really love the dark beers, though. The tasty, bitter ones. :-)

I love Redbridge in my recipes, it makes excellent fish batter, barbecue ribs, and I created a pizza crust that I think the beer makes it taste more like real pizza crust. Drinking it however, my hubby likes it, me not so much.

Oooh! Beer Pizza Crust. Kathy do you have a recipe that you could post? That sounds fabulous. :)

I have had New Grist, Bard's, and Open Original Shared Link

As a Stout and Porter kinda gal I prefer Green's because they have a line of dark beers. I used to have a rule that if I could see through the bottle, any light at all, I wouldn't drink the beer because it made me nauseous.

I now know why.

I can drink gluten-free beer just fine regardless of how much light flows through. ;)

Haven't tried Redbridge...mostly because I'm a Wisconsin girl ;) New Grist is local. :)

I do like Red Bridge, but I first tasted it after two years with NO beer. That may have an effect!

I really prefer Bards. To me it tastes similar to my memory of Anchor Steam, which I loved. Unfortunately, Bards is not available here, so I am happy with Red Bridge... sometimes VERY happy!

Yeah ... I mostly gave up on beer and drink wine, which I luckily also like. Bard's is a little expensive for me, and Yinpu is cheap but tastes a little odd.

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      Thanks a lot for your response! Can you maybe specify which kind of cheeses I should be cautious about? Camembert/Brie and blue cheeses (the molds of which are nowadays mostly grown on gluten-free media, though, so I've read, right?) or other ones as well? Also, I was under the impression that yeast is generally gluten-free if not declared otherwise...

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Hi @trents, yes I've had my levels checked in Dec 2025 which revealed vit D deficiency. I considered eggs although they only contain about 45 IU vitamin D/egg. I need 2000 IU vitamin D for maintenance as per my doctor. Although now, I likely need way more than that to treat the deficiency. My doctor has yet to advise me on dosing for deficiency. I've also...

      Welcome to celiac.com, @Jane02! Have you had your serum D levels checked for deficiency/sufficiency? What about cod liver oil? Egg yolks can also be a good source of vitamin D.

      Hello, I'm very discouraged. I've been trying to find a safe vitamin mineral supplement brand for months and am tired of testing one after the other and experiencing my typical 'glutening' reactions. I'm really feeling the nutritional deficiencies set in. I'm doing the best I can to get these nutrients from my food, although it's impossible for me to...

I've also considered cod liver oil, although again, if it's processed in a facility that has gluten, especially on flour form, I worried to test it, even if they have protocols in place to mitigate cross-contamination with gluten.

      Hello, I'm very discouraged. I've been trying to find a safe vitamin mineral supplement brand for months and am tired of testing one after the other and experiencing my typical 'glutening' reactions. I'm really feeling the nutritional deficiencies set in. I'm doing the best I can to get these nutrients from my food, although it's impossible for me to intake enough vitamin D as I can't have dairy and have insufficient sun exposure in the northern hemisphere. I've tried B Complex from Country Life (certified gluten-free) - horrible reaction. I've tried Metagenics vitamin D tab (certified glute-free) - bad reaction. I've tried liquid vitamin D Thorne and D Drops - reactions were mild since I tried a drop of a drop. I understand there could be other things I'm reacting to in my diet, although my diet/intake is pretty consistent with minimal variables so I do think it's something in these supplements. I understand I could be reacting to the active ingredient vitamin/mineral itself or even the filler ingredients. I tried the vitamin D drops since the only filler ingredient is coconut oil, in some brands, which I know I can tolerate really well on its own - I cook with coconut oil frequently and have no 'glutening' reactions at all. Perhaps I'm reacting to the vitamin D itself, although I eat fatty fish every few days, an entire fillet with no 'glutening' reactions, which contains anywhere between 400-600 IU per fillet so I shouldn't be sensitive to vitamin D. All this to say, I'm desperately looking for at least a safe vitamin D supplement. Does anyone know of a safe vitamin D supplement brand? I'd love to know if there are any supplement brands that have absolutely no gluten (especially in flour form) in their facilities. I've heard of Kirkman having no grains in their facility - I may try this brand. Has anyone reacted to this brand?
