More Beers

Swapping Thursday for Friday (or vice versa) meant I didn't go to the beer festival. So, in the spirit of further exploration, I bought two more gluten-free beers, this tie from Waitrose.

Saturday, I drank a bottle of Againt the Grain from Wold Top Breweries . Very refreshing, reminding of my dad's homebrews from years back.

No ill effects apparent.

Sunday, I drank a bottle of Celia from Carlsberg.

A very nice lager I think, even if I'm not really a lager drinker. But it's hot and sweaty weather at the mo', so I appreciated it.

No ill effects apparent today.

I'm beginning to feel confident that avoiding gluten (in beer, anyway) is the way to go.

This is the first of my catching up on the week/weekend posts.

Experiment

Tescos tempted me to buy a bottle of St Peter's Gluten Free. Why not? I thought. I miss beer; I don't miss the swollen knuckles (note this is not due to me becoming violent after beer drinking, merely the swelling up of finger joints). So yesterday I drank a pleasant enough lager-style 2.1 units of the stuff.

All seems OK.

(Now a visit to the Beer Festival later in the month to see who else is doing drinkable gluten-free beer is a definite possibility.)
