... that most brewer Sophie de Ronde is allergic to beer? Source: "Burnt Mill’s head brewer is allergic to beer’s main ingredient, but it hasn’t slowed her down." - [1]

@Theleekycauldron: As mentioned in the linked source, she isn't intolerant to gluten. It's the grains themselves she is allergic to, and these are found in the majority of gluten-free/low-gluten beers, which are generally brewed with barley malt as normal and then have the gluten removed (or at least reduced to <20 ppm). There are beers brewed with other grains (sorghum, millet, etc.) but these account for a tiny minority of the market and aren't generally commercially available. Personally I think it's fair to say that she's allergic to beer, but we could always just add "most beer" into the hook to be extra safe? BigDom (talk) 05:33, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
