I’ve sampled some of the gluten-free beers available and, in general, have not been impressed. However, here is one I tasted recently and enjoyed it:
This is one of the Green’s Gluten-Free beers made from millet, buckwheat, sorghum, and rice. They have a choice of golden ale, premium pils, a dark ale, and a couple others.
While I am no fan of gluten-free foods in general, this line of gluten-free beers was a refreshing change from my usual glass or two of wine. I had the amber ale and it was tasty: a bit nutty, not sweet, and a lot like a belgian ale made from wheat. With 11 to 14 grams carbohydrate per 500 ml bottle in the Green’s line of gluten-free beers, it is a modest carbohydrate indulgence, but low enough to stay below the radar for most people’s carbohydrate tolerance if you only drink one.
For those of you drinking gluten free beer, Omission Pale Ale and Omission Lager is great! I am however not losing any weight despite being totally gluten free. I am not wheat sensitive, only trying to lose weight and get healthier. Could it be the barley?
THREE MONTHS AGO I WAS TOLD THAT I AM TYPE 2 DIABETIC. AT THE SAME TIME I HAD STARTED TO DIET. BEING A TRUCKER IS WAS A LITTLE DIFFICULT BUT ALSO BEING A TRAINED COOK I DID THE BEST I COULD. MY WEIGHT WAS DOWN TO 260 WHICH FOR ME WAS GREAT. THEN I STARTED THE INSULIN AND I THOUGHT I WAS DOING GOOD BY EATING WHOLE GRAIN FOODS. DUH HA. I BALOONED TO 280. I WAS EATING OATMEAL FOR BREAKFAST AND LOTS OF OTHER LOFAT ITEMS. LITTLE DID I KNOW, UNTIL I READ “WHEAT BELLY” THAT I WAS DIGGING THE HOLE DEEPER. I WAS METERING ON THE AVG. OF 230 FOR MY BLOOD SUGAR. NOW, ONLY THREE DAYS AFTER READING THE BOOK I AM AT 104 THIS MORNING. THANKS DR. IAM GIVING YOU ALL THE CREDIT AS OF TODAY. EVEN MY COUNSLOR IS SURPRISED. IAM RE-READING YOUR BOOK SO I UNDERSTAND MORE AND I THINK THAT IAM ON MY WAY TO DROPPING THE INSULIN COMPLETLY.
Dr. Davis …. i wanted to ask you please….. can i cook with beer? I have leftover bottles of beer and i was wondering if cooking with beer is out of the question.
please let me know because…. if not… i’ll give them away. beer makes a wonderful beef stew in my crock pot when combined with a nice chick roast. the gravy is terrific.
BUT… .. not worth it if its gonna mess up my proper eating.
thanks
Woodchuck cider claims to be gluten free and its very tasty. The nutritional info is not easy to find though. Does anyone know if it is ok?
