Welcome! This site is designed to be a portal for information both on Gluten-Free Beer and Home Brewing...as this is still such a small niche.
While people having been brewing beer for centuries, only recently was it discovered that the Gluten found in Wheat, Barley, Rye and some Oats are harmful to certain people.
The effects vary widely, but most people diagnosed with Celiac Disease (the proper medical term for Gluten-Intolerance) complain of digestive problems and/or skin irrations, rashes or excema.
For more information about Celiac Disease please visit any one of these non-profit groups sites:
www.celiac.org - Celiac Disease Foundation
www.gluten.net - Gluten Intolerance Group of North America
www.celiac.nih.gov - Celiac Disease Awareness Campaign from the National Digestive Diseases Information Clearinghouse
