Finally, brewers are making gluten-free beer! Beer is traditionally made from barley, which has long made the classic brew off limits to people on gluten-free diets. Now, however, with microbreweries, craft breweries, and major international companies experimenting with sorghum-, millet-, rice- and buckwheat-based beers, people with celiac disease and others on gluten-free diets have a widening variety of truly tasty gluten-free beers to choose from. (At the bottom each page of this article, you can share your opinion: What's your favorite gluten-free beer?)
