Do I have a beer allergy?

Submitted by PhonYung on Fri, 10/10/2008 - 12:04. ::

I am allergic to wheat but why is it that everytime I drink beer, I have sore throat? does that mean I'm also allergic to beer?

Gluten

Gluten is the protein that is found in wheat, barley and rye. You're most likely allergic to gluten, not just wheat. They do make gluten free beer, or just stick with wine and mixed drinks.

every time i drink certain

every time i drink certain types of beer i get so itchy i cant stop scratching just after a few sips i dont understand why this happens can anyone tell me why this happens?my itchyness is mostly on my neck,shoulders and chest its pretty messed up

I also got very itchy after

I also got very itchy after only a few sips of Paulaner. Hives all over my neck, chest, armpits and elbows and later on my legs. Just couldn't stop scratching. I am also wondering why this happens.

My cousin is allergic to

My cousin is allergic to rye and everytime he drinks beer, he gets sore throat, too.

Beer may contain

Beer may contain ingredients like corn, wheat, barley and rye. I think your allergic reaction everytime you drink beer is not caused by the alcohol in the beer itself but the ingredients. You've mentioned that you are allergic to wheat and wheat is one of the ingredients of beer.

oh I see...I didn't know

oh I see...I didn't know that beer contains wheat. Thanks for your reply.
