Globetrotting for Gluten-Free Suds: A Celiac's Craft Beer & Cider Handbook

Exploring international craft beers and ciders should thrill every traveler – but for those with celiac disease, it can feel like navigating a minefield. Traditional beers are brewed with gluten-containing grains like barley, wheat, and rye. Even some ciders risk cross-contamination if produced in facilities handling gluten, or if additives sneak in. Fear not! The mm food app equips you to savor global brews safely and confidently.

Why Regular Beer is a Celiac No-Go

Classic craft beers rely on gluten-rich grains as their base. While "gluten-removed" beers exist, they remain controversial due to unreliable testing for peptide fragments that may trigger reactions. Cider, crafted from fruit (usually apples or pears), is naturally gluten-free... mostly. Hazards like:

• Shared equipment with beer production
• Barley-based additives for flavor/body
• Unclear labeling on imported bottles

Smart Sipping Strategies for Celiacs

• Cider First: Pure, traditionally-made ciders are often the safest bet globally. Look for terms like "100% apple juice," "no added grains," or certified gluten-free logos.
• Beware "Gluten-Removed": Tread carefully with beers labeled "gluten-reduced" or "crafted to remove gluten"; they may not work for all celiacs.
• Bottle Check: When in doubt, use mm food to scan labels or translate ingredient lists on packaged ciders and certified gluten-free beers while browsing shops.
