Wow.  I've done it.  It's finally happened.  I drank a Gluten-Free beer that actually tasted like beer.  Real beer.  You know, as good as any craft-made micro-brew you're likely to find.  It's called Green's, and this particular beer was called their Discovery brew.

If you're interested in the details, most beer is made with malted Barley and/or Rye, and those grains contain gluten, but gluten-free beer is made with Sorghum and/or Buckwheat, which makes it safe for people like me, with Celiac Disease.

I've had other Gluten-Free beers in the past and they just didn't measure up (I shan't name names).  One of the GF beers that I had was a beer brewed for Passover, and actually contained Honey.  It just didn't work for me.  I mean... sweet beer?  Another of the beers was brewed to emulate the current crop of American beers.  You know, watery and flaccid.   You remember what Monthy Python said about American beer, right?  (scroll down or search for keyword "beer").  Well this other beer had that classic American beer vibe, with a mild bitter flavor, but it finished with the bitterness of burnt toast.  Not a pleasant, round bitter taste found in real beers.

In a nutshell, the Green's crushed those other two beers.  It wasn't even close.  This stuff is the bomb, and if you're a Celiac who enjoys beer, Green's gets a hearty recommendation from me.
