Gluten free in a pub?


  • No beer - unless gluten free. Which is expensive, posh and stupid. Just don't drink it.
  • Brandy
  • Champagne
  • Cider - fermented from apples or other fruits. Some are safe, however, many add barley for enzymes and flavor.
  • Cognac - made from grapes.
  • Gin – juniper berries
  • Grappa – grapes
  • Kahlua – sugar, corn syrup, vanilla beans
  • Kirschwasser (cherry liqueur)
  • Martini:
    • Club Extra Dry Martini (corn & grape).
    • Club Vodka Martini (corn & grape).
  • Mead - distilled from honey.
  • Mixes & Cooking Alcohol:
    • Club Tom Collins (corn).
    • Diamond Jims Bloody Mary Mystery.
    • Holland House - all EXCEPT Teriyaki Marinade and Smooth & Spicy Bloody Mary Mixes.
    • Mr. & Mrs. T - all Except Bloody Mary Mix.
    • Spice Islands - Cooking Wines - Burgundy, Sherry and White.
  • Ouzo - made from grapes and anise.
  • Rum- sugar cane
  • Sake - fermented with rice and Koji enzymes. The Koji enzymes are grown on Miso, which is usually made with barley. The two-product separation from barley, and the manufacturing process should make it safe for celiacs.

  • Sparkling Wine
  • Tequila- blue agave plant
  • Vermouth - distilled from grapes.
