Alcohol

I write a lot about alcohol on this site. You may say I have a writing about drinking problem. Confused about gluten “removed” beer (hint…it’s not safe)? Not sure which alcohols you can drink? Pull up a chair, grab a gluten FREE beer and let’s learn.

Gluten-Free Beer: A New Era

July 11, 2012 | 150 Comments

My name is Gluten Dude and I’m a beer snob. It wasn’t always this way. My dad drank Carling’s Black Label while I was growing up so that was my first exposure to beer. Although calling Black Label beer is being generous. He’d give […]

It’s Tuesday morning and I’m still shaking the cobwebs out! Did the Dude tie one on last night? No he didn’t. Did the Dude get glutened? Nope. Did the Dude go to bed too late? Not at all. So what was the Dude’s celiac […]

Who I am. And who I'm not.

I AM someone who's been gluten-free since 2007 due to a diagnosis of severe celiac disease. I'm someone who can steer you in the right direction when it comes to going gluten-free. And I'm someone who will always give you the naked truth about going gluten free.

I AM NOT someone who embraces this gluten-free craziness. I didn’t find freedom, a better life or any of that other crap when I got diagnosed. With all due respect to Hunter S. Thompson, I found fear and loathing of an unknown world. But if I can share my wisdom, tell my stories and make the transition easier on you, I’ve done my job.
