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.

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!!!

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

      This happened to me as well. What’s weirder is that within a couple hours of taking paxlovid it subsided. I thought maybe I got glutened but after reading your post not so sure.

      Hi Tiffany. Thank you for writing your dituation and  circumstancesin such detail and so well writte, too. I particularly noticed what you wrote about brain for and feeling like your brain is swelling and I know from my own experiences that's how it feel and your brain really does swell and you get migraines.    Way back when I was in my 20s I read a book by 2 MD allergist and they described their patient who came in complaining that her brain, inside her cranium, was swelling  and it happened when she smelled a certain chemical she used in her home. She kept coming back and insisting her brain actually swelled in her head. The Drs couldn't explain this problem so they, with her permission, performed an operation where they made a small opening through her cranium, exposed her to the chemical then watched as she brain did swell into the opening. The DRs were amazed but then were able to advise her to avoid chemicals that made her brain swell. I remember that because I occasionally had brain fog then but it was not a serious problem. I also realized that I was becoming more sensitive to chemicals I used in my work in medical laboratories. By my mid forties the brain fog and chemicals forced me to leave my  profession and move to a rural area with little pollution. I did not have migraines. I was told a little later that I had a more porous blood brain barrier than other people. Chemicals in the air would go up into my sinused and leak through the blood brain barrier into my brain. We have 2 arteries  in our neck that carry blood with the nutrients and oxygen into the brain. To remove the fluids and used blood from the brain there are only capillaries and no large veins to carry it away so all those fluids ooze out much more slowly than they came in and since the small capillaries can't take care of extra fluid it results in swelling in the face, especially around the eyes. My blood flow into my brain is different from most other people as I have an arterial ischema, adefectiveartery on one side.   I have to go forward about 20 or more years when I learned that I had glaucoma, an eye problem that causes blindness and more years until I learned I had celiac disease.  The eye Dr described my glaucoma as a very slow loss of vision that I wouldn't  notice until had noticeable loss of sight.  I could have my eye pressure checked regularly or it would be best to have the cataracts removed from both eyes. I kept putting off the surgery then just overnight lost most of the vision in my left eye. I thought at the I had been exposed to some chemical and found out a little later the person who livedbehind me was using some chemicals to build kayaks in a shed behind my house. I did not realize the signifance  of this until I started having appointments with a Dr. in a new building. New buildings give me brain fog, loss of balance and other problems I know about this time I experienced visual disturbances very similar to those experienced by people with migraines. I looked further online and read that people with glaucoma can suffer rapid loss of sight if they have silent migraines (no headache). The remedy for migraines is to identify and avoid the triggers. I already know most of my triggers - aromatic chemicals, some cleaning materials, gasoline and exhaust and mold toxins. I am very careful about using cleaning agents using mostly borax and baking powder. Anything that has any fragrance or smell I avoid. There is one brand of dishwashing detergent that I can use and several brands of  scouring powder. I hope you find some of this helpful and useful. I have not seen any evidence that Celiac Disease is involved with migraines or glaucoma. Please come back if you have questions or if what I wrote doesn't make senseto you. We sometimes haveto learn by experience and finding out why we have some problems. Take care.       The report did not mention migraines.

      Hi Jmartes71 That is so much like my story! You probably know where Laytonville is and that's where I was living just before my 60th birthday when the new Dr. suggested I could have Celiacs. I didn't go on a gluten challange diet before having the Celiac panel blood test drawn. The results came back as equivical as one antibody level was very high but another, tissue transaminasewas normal. Itdid show I was  allergic to cows milk and I think hot peppers. I immediately went gluten free but did not go in for an endoscopy. I found an online lab online that would do the test to show if I had a main celiac gene (enterolab.com). The report came back that I had inherited a main celiac gene, DQ8, from one parent and a D!6 from the other parent. That combination is knows to sym[tons of celiac worse than just inheriting one main celiac gene. With my version of celiac disease I was mostly constipated but after going gluten-free I would have diarrhea the few times I was glutened either by cross contamination or eating some food containing gluten. I have stayed gluten-free for almost 20 years now and knew within a few days that it was right for me although my recovery has been slow.   When I go to see a  medical provide and tell them I have celiacs they don't believe me. The same when I tell them that I carry a main celiac gene, the DQ8. It is only when I tell them that I get diarrhea after eating gluten that they realize that I might have celiac disease. Then they will order th Vitamin B12 and D3 that I need to monitor as my B12 levels can go down very fast if I'm not taking enough of it. Medical providers haven't been much help in my recovery. They are not well trained in this problem. I really hope this helps ypu. Take care.
