Corn allergy -What beers do not contain corn?!
Corn allergy -What beers do not contain corn?
I just found out I have a moderate corn allergy and I have to avoid corn completely for at least a month (before they do more testing to see the severity of it). Now I'm having a hard time finding the right foods to eat but not quite as hard of a time as I have had trying to find out what beers contain corn. I assume there are quite a few nowadays, but I just wanted to know if any of you guys knew of any beer that is not made with corn.
Thanks!
Answers:
You've gotten some good advice.. and some ignorant advice. Avoid most American beers as there will be traces of corn in mostly every single one of them. I have a corn allergy myself, so I can vouch.
German beers are pretty safe bets. Sierra Nevada (American microbrewery) makes a wheat beer with no corn in it.
As for finding corn-free foods.. good luck trying that on your own. I definitely recommend going to a site that caters to corn allergies as corn is in almost literally everything.
