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?

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

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

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

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

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
