    Reviewed and edited by a celiac disease expert.

    Celiac.com 05/27/2021 - We get a lot of questions from celiac community members wondering if certain products are gluten-free. One question we see a lot is about beers. 

    Specifically, is Budweiser gluten-free and safe for people with celiac disease? The short answer is no, Budweiser is not gluten-free, and is not recommended for people with celiac disease.

    Celiac.com Sponsor (A12):
     The longer answer is that both Bud and Bud Light contain the following ingredients: water, barley malt, rice, yeast and hops.

    Because Budweiser contains barley malt, it is not gluten-free, and so not recommended for people with celiac disease.

    However, Anheuser-Busch does make a gluten-free beer called "Redbridge Lager," which is gluten-free, and is widely available.

    If you're looking for a specific Budweiser product that contains alcohol and is gluten-free, then you might consider a Bud Light Seltzer. We recently wrote about how Bud Light Seltzer is gluten-free, and safe for people with celiac disease. 

    If you're looking for a gluten-free beer, then try one of the many gluten-free or gluten-removed beers on the market.

    Scott Adams

    Scott Adams was diagnosed with celiac disease in 1994, and, due to the nearly total lack of information available at that time, was forced to become an expert on the disease in order to recover. In 1995 he launched the site that later became Celiac.com to help as many people as possible with celiac disease get diagnosed so they can begin to live happy, healthy gluten-free lives.  He is co-author of the book Cereal Killers, and founder and publisher of the (formerly paper) newsletter Journal of Gluten Sensitivity. In 1998 he founded The Gluten-Free Mall which he sold in 2014. Celiac.com does not sell any products, and is 100% advertiser supported.

    So grab a beer, and celebrate Oktoberfest. But before we get to the list of beer purveyors, let's quickly review some basics of gluten-free versus gluten removed.
    Naturally Gluten-free Beers—Naturally gluten-free beers are made with all gluten-free source ingredients, and use grains like sorghum instead of barley. This is important to many people, especially those with high sensitivity, or the belief that gluten-removed beers may trigger celiac-related problems.

      What do my test results mean?

      @jmiller93, Some of us are seronegative and don't test positive on tTg IgA tests. Anemia, diabetes, and Thiamine deficiency can cause false negatives on Celiac panels. Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies? Iron? Thiamine? Vitamin B12? Vitamin D? Only one Celiac markers is needed to develop the active disease. I agree a...

      @HWB, Have you been checked for SIBO? Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth will cause constipation and chemically breath. The best way to get rid of SIBO is to go on a ketogenic/Paleo diet, like the Autoimmune Protocol Diet. It starves out the carbohydrate loving bacteria and allows good bacteria to repopulate the small intestine. The...

      Nighttime Soiling (5 year old)

      Just had my daughter diagnosed and am currently awaiting blood test results for my son. As well as many bowel issues, mostly loose stools with mucus and lots of gassy moments sometimes leading to leaning stool, he has recently soiled himself in his sleep twice. He has been toilet trained for a long time, but is not waking up with the poo. It’s n...

      Scientists have discovered a cause of inflammatory bowel disease. They said it's a 'holy grail' discovery that could transform other autoimmune treatments.

      I know this isn't an IBS Forum, but it looks like they may have cracked the code on treating it. They think the new discovery may make it possible to treat other autoimmune diseases. Even if they develop a treatment I think I would continue eating strict gluten-free, but it may allow me to eat out gluten-free without the fear of being glutened. That would...
