I don't know how much faith I put into this man, but here's my story.

We had a neighborhood cookout on Sunday Sept. 4. There is a new family in town and they wanted to meet the new neighbors. The husband works for Anheuser-Busch as a sales manager. He is pretty high up as he has been relocating every 2 years or so to work up the ladder. He said they are coming out with a new product every 4-6 weeks right now. They are doing a test market in Boston on an organic beer. They are listening to the public as sales are slipping due to liquor and wine sales increasing. They are also coming out with some sort of beer that has the anti-oxidents from blueberries due to request.

So, he took his palm pilot out and started jotting down info about Celiacs! He was a little confused at first but I think I cleared him up. He was going to send in a request first thing in the morning. He was very interested in the fact that it is estimated that 1 in 133 people have it.

I am hopefull. I live in Wisconsin and it is truly a tragedy that I cannot have beer nor can I boil my brats in beer. They don't sell any gluten-free beers here yet. I am struggling as to where to go to solicit that I want them here!!!

Keep your fingers crossed all of you beer fans! There could be more options coming our way!! ;)

Oh I hear you there! That's the first thing that people usually ask me "Can you have beer?" and then they are totally horrified when they find out I can't. I mean, why even live in Wisconsin if you can't have beer! What am I supposed to do when we go to the Packer game this year??

Hello,

I've had Bards Tale Beer which is gluten-free. Its pretty good. You can order it online at internetwines.com. Although they are currently out of stock. Bardsbeer.com states that online ordering is under construction. So there is hope there.

Also, Ramapo Valley Brewery sells their gluten-free beer on the website. I have not had that one yet. It is expensive with the S&H but isn't everything we have to buy.

How are the Packs 3 1/2 pt underdogs to the Lions this week?

Good for you for spreading the word! :-)

Ok. So I went to their web site, Open Original Shared Link

They have all sorts of stuff saying, "we have Gluten Free Beer", and a list of their beers. But I can't figure out what beer is Gluten Free. Surely they all aren't, every single one of them says it contains Malt...

Anyone try this beer before? Just trying to figure out which beer they sell that is Gluten Free.

I have had the same problem. I looked all over the site and I couldn't find any information about the gluten-free beer.

Jams, I almost weep everytime I walk through the store and see Spotted Cow. :(

Someone mentioned brats... BRATS! There are gluten-free brats???? Please tell me what kind!

I'll be eternally grateful and won't rub it in when my Vikings win the NFC north this year! :D

frenchiemama Collaborator

Johnsonville original brats are gluten-free, to the best of my knowledge.

Yeah, right. Vikings my ass! :P GO PACK GO!!!

jams Explorer

Usingers are gluten-free too.

I had the same problem at the websites for gluten-free beer. I am not very computer friendly so that may be some of the problem too. I did try the Bard's Tale, didn't care for it too much. I am a lite beer fan. I was told the Rampo Valley (sp?) may be a better choice for me. I just can't figure out how to order it! <_< I see the link that says to click here for gluten free beer drinkers.... but then it takes me to a page of information only. Any suggestions would be great!

Bum Bum Ba Bum Bum.... GO PACK GO! (You'll only know the tune to that if you are a packer fan!! :P )

Hello,

Well - it appears to me that Ramapo Valley Brewery has moved. They used to be in Suffern, NY & now the website says they are in Hillburn, NY. Maybe they are going through a moving process.

They also changed their website. It used to be very straightforward with the ordering process. Hopefully this is a temporary occurence. They do still advertise the gluten-free beer so hopefully it will be back soon.

Maybe the best bet would be to call them if you can find the phone #. I only found the old phone # on Yahoo Yellow Pages.

Go Giants!!!

Hey, Wandering Hermit - the R30 DVD is coming out in the fall. It was filmed in Germany. Also, it seems we are always posting in these beer related threads.

I just came across this old post while I was doing a search on something else. It's from 2005.

I thought in light of Anheuser-Busch's launching of Red Bridge, this deserved a bump and a HUGE thank you to Jams!

:D:D:D

      Hi, I have worked in education in the past. Based on where assigned and building crowding I made adjustments when needed.  I understand completely what you mentioned. I brought food from home in my own Pyrex glass container.  I kept it in my own lunch tote that I kept with me during the day. In the teacher's lounge/staff lunch room I would wipe down the area I sat at with soap and water with disposable paper towel.  I also placed down a fabric placemat prior to unpacking my meal. Unfortunately, one district I could never use the microwaves as they were filled with splatters and crumbs. (To be honest at that one school even if I didn't have this condition, I would not have used those microwaves based on their state of cleanliness). There were mini lockers nearby that I kept my placemat in. I brought my placemat  home weekly to launder.  There were times if the staff had a celebration with cake or pizza I would eat outside or in my car . As the  eating tables also had to display the  party spread. So the pizza and cake was on the communal lunch tables. Those days I just diverted to outside on the grass or my car. When I was fortunate to have a consistent schedule many staff "knew" my spot, and it was usually empty when I arrived. Occasionally, it was taken and it normally was by a substitute who didn't know about me/my situation.  I hope you are able to navigate this new change of building/assignment. I do know these days many districts have crowding and teachers often share classrooms or the same desk. This was often my experience whether in teacher or support staff role. Some districts you don't even have your own desk or space. I hope you do have some space to retreat to when possible. There often times is that awkwardness of a new schedule assignment where they ask why you don't want cake, pizza ,or always bring your lunch etc. For me that happened in every job education or business sector as often times I was the only one with this condition.  I hope this may have offered some support to lessen your anxiety about the new school year  assignment change. Best wishes

      People get genetic modification confused with hybridization. Wheat, as has most of our food crops, has been altered through hybridization to make it more disease resistant, more drought resistant and even to increase the gluten content. Hybridization uses selective breeding/cross pollination to enhance certain characteristics. Genetic modification, on the other hand, uses a "gene gun" to knock out certain genes and replace them with unnatural ones. In some cases, plant genes are replaced with animal genes to achieve certain properties. This is what GMO is about. Have you actually been formerly tested for celiac disease, either by blood antibody testing, biopsy or both, to rule out celiac disease?

      Thank you for your response. I have had several different antibiotics over the years and none affected my sensitivity to wheat products which I assumed was due to the gluten in them. However I do believe this time it was an antibiotic I’ve never had before so if your explanation is correct it would seem this antibiotic (cefuroxime 500 MG tablet Commonly known as: CEFTIN, 1 tablet by mouth 2 (Two) Times a Day for 10 days.)  could be a cure for my sort of sensitivity. I assume the hospital IV was the same antibiotic. The IV was ordered because my blood culture showed bacteria in my blood. I remember hearing years ago the gmo wheat was found in some products but I guess that was a misnomer. Believe me after over 20 years of putting up with this sensitivity, despite the fact that growing up eating subs, pizza and spaghetti regularly never affected me, I am so relieved to no longer have to avoid wheat.. I hope!

      Welcome to the forum, @The Logician! Many antibiotics have anti-inflammatory properties. By the way, GMO wheat is not used in food products: https://www.chefsresource.com/faq/is-wheat-genetically-modified-in-the-united-states/ There is a common misconception that it is.
    • The Logician
      I do not have celiac disease however for 20 years-plus I have been sensitive to gluten. A slice of bread will give me diarrhea in less than an hour. This started with me around the time I believe GMO wheat was beginning to appear in products on the market. Last week i went into the hospital to get antibiotic IV for three days. While there I was constipated so I figured eating gluten would fix that. I had gluten at every meal and it had no affect on me. I was still constipated until I got home and hen started having normal bowel movements even though I continued eating gluten products and I have never felt better! Not even a hint of diarrhea. I’ve eaten some gluten in bread, cream of wheat, pizza every day now for 7 days and still no reaction. I have read that antibiotics may cause gluten sensitivity but not the opposite.  I’m wondering if my gluten sensitivity was not to gluten but a sensitivity to how gluten reacted to a bacteria (good or bad) in my gut. A bacteria which has been removed by the antibiotics I am taking. I stopped antibiotics today. My doctor had no clue why this occurred and wasn’t interested in finding out so I’d like to know if this information could be helpful to anyone studying gluten sensitivity.
