Help me find this beer brand

[zzzippper]

Yesterday I found out I have Celiac disease and I have to try to go gluten free...no beer! But I have found that there are a number of gluten free beers. By all accounts beers made by Brunehaut are by far the best. Have you seen any in the Denver area? The distributor's site says they are available but that's all it says.

Thanks. A beer-free world is not a world I want to live in.

Might try Tipsy's, they have damn near everything under the sun.

[Great-Kazoo]

Call new Belguim and the other brewers in Ft fun. IIRC the coloradoan did an article about one of the places doing a gluten free cold one.

+1 to Tipsy's! If they don't have it, odds are it probably doesn't exist. [Beer]

[Zundfolge]

New Planet is in Boulder and all their beers are gluten free (never had 'em so I have no idea if they're any good, but most craft brewers brew good stuff).

Or Total Beverage in Thornton. Holy shit, that store is HUGE, as big as a KingSoopers, including every beer under the sun. Youc an even buy many SINGLES and build your custom 12pack of different stuff you wanna try. And it's ALL REFRIDGERATED all the time. Beer lover's paradise. If you/your wife is into wine, the bulk of the store is wine, separated into aisles by country of origin!

Gluten-free beers, take a list with you:

Wow!

I freaking seriously just left the allergist!!
No celeiac, but allergic to everything.

Including, yeast, and beef!! Please shoot me now!!

[Dingo]

My condolences... might be time to take the honorable way out. lol.

[DD977GM2]

Does Tipsys or the Thornton place have Kilkenny's? Best beer around and only seen it served at a British tavern eatery in San Antonio on the river walk.

What are the symptoms? Are they controllable with meds or endurable?

I just can't imagine living with bad food alergies ... I like food too much. A lady I work with has a bunch of them and she's constantly having to verify the ingredients in everything she eats (probably why she only weighs 90lb soaking wet).

[Melvin]

Davidsons in Lone Tree, Total in Westminster and Thornton.

You learn to adjust. No matter what you consume ALWAYS READ the LABEL / Country of Origin.WE scan every label to see where it came from NO CHINA Nothing for seasonings, meats, etc even dog food. As once major sea food, lovers being reduced to buying only east coast caught or farm raised fish is trying.

[drift_g35]

I will ask my wife. She works for Coors Distributing, and for the most part they distribute 99% of beer in Colorado. I can see if she can get a list of places that carry it.

[hatidua]

Boulder and all their beers are gluten free

Well color me shocked! (99% of Boulder is gluten intolerant.....two years ago it was lactose intolerant but gluten is the new thing).

It's a drive from your part of town, but DaveCo liquors in Thornton has it, along with every other beer you never knew existed.

Edit: I see snowman beat me to it... it's practically a WalMart of just alcohol.

[drift_g35]

Just found out Coors DOES distribute it, however my wife does not have access to the sales system. My dad also works there so he said he will find out what liquor stores in Highlands Ranch carry it for you.

[SuperiorDG]

Gluten free beer sucks, switch to wine.

[driver]

Outside magazine has an article and reviews on gluten free brews in this or last months issue. I haven't read it though. Good luck.

[Sawin]

This is not bad advice. I actually have to agree.

[Inconel710]

Just scan the beer aisle at your local store. I've seen several gluten free beers where I shop and I'm not even looking for 'em!

[Zundfolge]

Or Bourbon.

Celiac has no cure or treatment. You can only hope to slow it by eliminating glutens as much as possible.

What I read at that link says their Pale Ale is pretty good.

5. New Planet Off the Grid Pale Ale
Style: American Pale Ale
City: Boulder, Colo.
ABV: 5%
Key Ingredients: Hops
% Like Beer: 85%
For Fans Of: American-style IPAs
The verdict: For IPA and pale ale lovers, New Planet’s Off the Grid is the clear choice. Hoppy and crisp, it delivers on the promise of American craft-brewed ales.

[zzzippper]

I saw that too but it also says it is only 85% like beer. Their raspberry ale is 0% like beer, which is understandable.

Boycott boulder. Maggot pool of arrested development.

[zzzippper]

I was going to make a joke about wine, French people, and sucking. But you people have guns.

Good thing I'm not French.. I'd surrender at your attempted insult.

[spittoon]

Gluten-free beers !! Just stop drinking they suck" if you want a comparison my hunting sock's used as a tea bag[Puke]

[bear71]

Doesn't really have a true beer taste but Angry Orchard Ale or other like it are a good gluten free alternative!

Wow I had no idea! I'm fairly new to the north metro area, but between La Fogata (mexican restaurant) and famous Dave's, I'm up there all the time, just never checked out Daveco.

[Rabid]

Or Bourbon.
Bourbon is still made out of grains. Your best bet is potato vodka or wines. Gluten free beers are something you can get used too but are never as good as the real thing. Good luck finding what you can eat, i have a few friends that have celiac's and they had problems at first but soon figured out what would work for them.

Gluten is in wheat, and through cross-contamination a lot of oats as well. If you buy oatmeal, make sure it's labeled gluten free.

Other than that, it's relatively easy to avoid these days. Rice/potatos/corn/quinoa are all fine for starches. Use soft corn tortillas at chipotle.

In general just read the labels.

I laughed.

[Ah Pook]

Missed this thread the first time around.

Here are a couple of CO beer brewers that do gluten free.

Good luck

Bourbon is distilled. How do you figure that any gluten from gluten producing grains added to the corn would make it through distillation?

That is a good question that i do not have the answer for. From friends and of a late family member that was of the generation you drank a cocktail every night i know it can still make you sick. The switch from normal vodka to potato vodka made all the difference to that family member. If anyone does know why please share because it always made me wonder too.

[Gunyaga]

For the brune beers mile high wine and liquor at 64th and McIntyre in Arvada has it along with several others...
