My wife and I both have problems with gluten so we’ve been brewing our own GF beer for the last ~7 years. It was difficult to get started but the output is well worth the effort!
Most of them are darker brews (stouts, tripels, etc). This is one of our lighter holiday ales that came in ~8% ABV.
New here, and writing this from another instance. Hope it works.
My gf is also allergic to gluten and I brewed her a fancy beer as present. I decided to make an unusual one (not with hops) and used millet/ rice (+ amylase), “banana”-yeast and ginger.
Tasted great, but sadly got contaminated with lactic acid bacteria, making it sour. But that was also my first try ever, next time it will get better!
You HAVE to share your recipe, especially what kind of malt you use. I’m still searching for an alternative to the strong malt taste in classical beer.
Also, any ideas for a “non-classic” (aka hops and malt) beer? Similar to the ginger-millet beer? Maybe with some spices or herbs?
Tell me everything!!! :)
