Barley

Post by Turkeytop » Thu Oct 22, 2020 2:19 pm

So, my can of beer has this tiny disclaimer, "Contains: Barley."

Really? Doesn't all beer contain barley? Why the warning? Allergies? Religious objections? I don't get it.

I started out with nothing and I still have most of it.

People with Celiac disease can have barley allergies. You can use other grains to make beer if I’m not mistaken.

Weissenbeer or Wheat beer for instance.
New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.

But for drinkers who are gluten intolerant, that would be no better than barley.

Maybe they should just stick with girly drinks like vodka coolers.

I've a friend who cannot drink the industrials due to adverse reaction to gluten, but likes beer. He's found this:

"Ingredients: water, millet, buckwheat, corn, black rice, corn maltodextrin, hops, yeast"

It's available in N Michigan. YMMV.

Now, back to your colorful hard seltzer...
