Gluten in Beer & Alcohol: What You Need to Know

Yes, gluten is found in beer and any alcoholic beverage that is made from wheat, rye, or barley.

Gluten is a protein found in wheat, rye, and barley, and it can cause serious health problems for people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. When these grains are used to make beer, the gluten protein remains in the final product.

As a result, people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity should avoid drinking beer or any other alcoholic beverage that is made from wheat, rye, or barley.

There are now many gluten-free beers available on the market, made from alternative grains such as sorghum, millet, or buckwheat. These beers are safe for people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity to consume.
