A beer loving friend has just been diagnosed as very gluten intolerant. Anyone know how to make a gluten free beer? what can i use as a substitute in normal recipes?
I can't see this working. Beer is made pretty much entirely from gluten containing grains. I'm afraid your friend might have to switch to cider.
sorry guys. should have put more detail.
i mostly use extract, but have been using grain as well lately. i've been home-brewing for about a year and they've all turned out good, so I'm fairly confident. i know you can buy gluten free beers, so i though i'd give it a shot (seeing as i now know 3 celiacs). i've found some recipes using buckwheat and rice syrup. I was just interested to know if anyone had any experience with gluten free brewing.
Somebody called?wasn't there a poster on here who was into it? milletman was his name I think he was right into it, pm him about it.
Except... that I can see from where I am sitting - A fermenter full of 22L of beer that was brewed entirely without a single gluten containing component. Beer can be made from basically any cereal.. the trick is not making gluten free beer, the trick is making gluten free beer that tastes like normal beer.
You just have to be determined enough.
Why? It has grain, hops and is fermented with ale or lager yeast. Why isn't it beer? At what percentage of adjuncts does a beer stop being beer?it is only beer in the name sense a fermented alcoholic beverage
billabongs australian pale ale is a bad drop though
