Guest guest Posted July 3, 2006 Report Share Posted July 3, 2006 Just noticed this old email which has some incorrect information. Hornsby's Cider (at least one of them) is not gluten free and I found that out the hard way. I made that mistake not because of this email but because I made the common assumption that caramel made in USA is GF. I then nocticed later that it is on a non-gluten free list from a medical center U went to a while back.

Guest guest Posted July 6, 2006 Report Share Posted July 6, 2006 Me too. Also the same with Wyder’s. Woodchuck, however, I do NOT react to. (And, FYI, Woodchuck DRY is the closest thing I’ve found to beer, at least as far as ciders go).

Guest guest Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 I don't know if I've had Woodchuck dry, but I've had Woodpecker (somehow related) and it is da bomb. Actually, I thought what you said about having kind of a beer feel. I did try the Ramapo Honey Ale once also and I would say give it a try.

Guest guest Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 I buy new grist ale which is gluten free and like it much better than the Ramapo, which I find is too sweet for my taste. For those of you who like beer, give it a try. It is great with a sqeeze of lime, much like the Coronas I used to drink You can buy it through the Beer Clubs of America 1-800-club-usa.
