I found Bard's at Total Wine.

I still get Bards in the Kansas City area both KS & MO sides.

I can find the blue/black stuff that is simply labeled "Bard's Tale," but I've never seen the Dragon's Gold outside of pictures online..

I saw it at Whole Paycheck but it was labeled just Bard's, not Bard's Tale.

I just bought a 6 pack of Bard's from BevMo. haven't tried it yet. I like Redbridge, but they didn't have it this time.

I'm desperate to find gluten-free beer that actually has some character to it. These rice/corn beers are so weak they taste like water. hops are NOT a problem, so I don't understand why the gluten-free beers are so light on hops and taste. What I'd give for a gluten-free IPA!

If you can find Greens. They have three different types so maybe one would be to your liking. However, they are expensive ($5-$6 a bottle).

I tried them and seem to remember one being a heavier beer. Don't drink them frequently due to the cost.

We shortened the name some time ago from Bard's Tale Dragon's Gold to Bard's Gold for several reasons. Same great beer in new packaging and shorter name.

The reason they are so weak is that the sorghum that replaces barley is not malted. Some are only 3.3% ABV. Only Bard's malts the sorghum for traditional beer flavor and aroma. Remember, malting is a process used in making beer. Malted sorghum is still gluten-free. Bard's is 4.6% ABV.

bards is the only one thats decent. see my posts about gluten testing regular beer. jt.

Pintail78 Newbie

Ive starting brewing my own and thats another way to do it, its not very hard and it fun too.

Also, I have EZ gluten tested as few regular beers, Corona is less than 10 ppm gluten, budweiser is really high as is Karl Strauss Red trolley. The EZ gluten tests are supposed to pickup wheat, barley or rye down to 10 ppm.

      Welcome to the forum, @TexasCeliacNewbie! The test results you posted strongly point to celiac disease. It is likely that your physician will want to perform an endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining to confirm the results of the celiac antibody bloodwork results you just posted. It is important that you not cut back on gluten consumption until the endoscopy/biopsy is complete, assuming, that is, one is forthcoming.  Can you post the actual reference ranges used by the lab for the tests to determine positive/negative/normal/high/low? Scales used by these labs are different from one place to the other so the raw numbers don't mean much without the scale used by the lab. There aren't industry standards for this. By the way, you probably won't be able to edit the original post so please post the extra info in new post. May we ask about the cancer you mentioned? There are some things that can elevate the antibody test scores, at least mildly, besides celiac disease.

      Hi, I have been having a lot of back pain and gut issues for 8 weeks or so.  I saw the GI on Monday and my results just came in from the lab.  Some of these number are high and off the little chart from the lab.  I am reading this correctly that I most likely have Celiac, right???  It would explain a lot of things for me that otherwise are worrying me that my previous cancer is recurring.  Thank you for all of your expertise in this area! Immunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum 140 (normal) Deamidated Gliadin Abs, IgA 256 (High) Deamidated Gliadin Abs, IgG 65 (High) t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA 31 (High) t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgG 10 (High)

      So, I would assume it means that if the risk of developing celiac disease in the general population is 1%, people with the DQ2 gene have a 10% risk of developing celiac disease. So, have you or your physician concluded that you have celiac disease?
    • TerryinCO
      Here's the test result I was refering to.  I may not be understanding this correctly.

      Thanks for the update @TerryinCO! Would you elaborate what you mean when you say your genetic tests show that you are "10x higher" for developing celiac disease? 10x higher than what? There are two main genes, HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8, that have been identified as providing the potential for developing celiac disease. Since 40% of the population carries one or both of these genes but only 1% of the population actually develops celiac disease, the genetic test cannot be used to diagnose celiac disease, simply to establish the potential for developing it. Gene testing is usually done to rule out celiac disease vs. NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). In other words, if gluten consumption is definitely causing someone problems but they don't have the genetic potential for developing celiac disease then the diagnosis would be NCGS. We also know that having both DQ2 and DQ8 puts one at higher risk for developing celiac disease than having just one or the other. But I'm not sure I've ever seen it quantified as in "10x higher". Not sure what you mean by this.
