This is an amber-colored beer, with delicate hints of copper and orange. It’s intense notes of hops define the personality of this Mediterranean version of the classic IPA style. Aromas of ripe fruit and tropical citrus notes reinforce its freshness. The Damm Brewers Masters together with the Gluten Unit of the CSIC (Higher Council for Scientific Research) were pioneers in developing a beer suitable for coeliacs with all the flavor of a “real” beer. We can define Daura as the flavour of “the usual beer” since it is made with its main ingredient (barley malt), and less than 3ppm of gluten, suitable for coeliacs.

After all, many people–not just Celiacs–feel WAY better when minimizing their gluten intake.

Yes, the US system of gluten-free and gluten-reduced seems better than the European one. I am avoiding beer for the moment as I have read research suggesting that some people might still react to fragments of degraded gluten proteins in supposedly safe beer.

Be careful drinking these. They are brewed with an industrial enzyme named Brewers Clarex. This enzyme is ridiculously cool because it actually breaks apart the gluten protein, and a lot of other proteins details. This gluten-free lager brewed by Anheuser-Busch is the most accessible gluten free beer in the United States, due to its wide distribution network.

The labeling laws are different in Europe, allowing brewers to slap a gluten free label on gluten reduced beers…so long as it’s below 10-20ppm. I’ve never cared for that oversight. I find it misinforms the consumer and puts Celiacs at risk. There is certainly a market for gluten reduced beers out there, but I feel it’s made up of those who choose to avoid gluten and perhaps don’t have an auto immune disease triggered by it. Hi Otis… Thanks for your comment and caution. As you probably know, Brewers Clarex isn’t the only way brewers reduce the amount of gluten in their beers – selecting low-protein varieties of barley, several steps of the brewing process, and prolonged cold storage (or other clarifying methods) all incrementally serve to reduce the total gluten present in a beer. In this study, the blood sera of 31 people with coeliac disease and 30 matched controls without coeliac disease was tested for binding against barley flour, beer and gluten-removed beer. Cultivated barely is less immunogenic than wheat or wild barley, which may be why the sera of just 11 test subjects with coeliac disease reacted to barley flour. 4 of these also reacted to ordinary beer, and 3 also reacted to gluten-removed beer. This research was done in a test tube and may not reflect the actual bodily response to consuming gluten-removed beer, but it suggests that it is possible for some people to react to it.As far as peptides go, I think your concern is understandable, but – in my opinion – unfounded. I’ve interviewed several prominent Celiac researchers and brewing scientists on this topic, and have also read the peer-reviewed journal articles on the topic. Here are some things to keep in mind: If you’re looking to taste some truly gluten FREE beers originating from Spain, SO AM I! But even after traveling through Spain for a month last year, I was unable to locate a single beer brewed with 100% gluten free ingredients. Be careful that its 'Certified' gluten-free Vs "Brewed to remove gluten-free" I know the Omission beers became an issue for me. The Daura Damm is marketed as a 5.4% ABV traditional lager. I’m happy to report that in bold letters on the top label, it reads “Crafted to Remove Gluten”, which is the legal requirement in the USA for all gluten reduced beers. I’m thrilled to see this beer labeled correctly, as not all imported beers are. As with anything that’s too good to be true though, it looks like this might actually be problematic because while the gluten no longer exists (and therefore avoids all gluten tests), but the truth is that people aren’t having problems with gluten protein, but rather 3 of the peptides in the protein. As of yet no research has been done to see if those peptides still exist in the final product or not.

Finally, this isn’t a really great beer to begin with, so don’t look at brewers clarex and think that all variants are bad. This particular beer doesn’t taste great, but it works in all beers and doesn’t manipulate the flavors. Technically you can get a vial of the stuff, dump it in a keg of your favorite barley-only beer, wait a week and viola, gf beer. This beer is light and bubbly in appearance, and has a strong “malt” flavor it it. It finishes smooth, and is very drinkable. Brewers Clarex is classified as a prolyl endoprotease, which basically means a “protein eating” enzyme that specifically targets the amino acid proline. The research you cite found that three peptides – each about 12 amino acids long – seem to cause many of the Celiac related problems. Scientists have previously sequenced barley hordein (for example, in this study in Biomedical and Life Sciences: http://www.springerlink.com/content/a112273645778415/) and found that proline occurs more frequently than every 12 amino acids. It then stands to reason that barley hordein “digested” by proline-seeking Brewers Clarex would yield peptides too small to cause a Celiac reaction. Because barley is used instead of sorghum, this gluten-removed lager taste much more like you would expect a beer to taste like. One of the first, and still one of the best, gluten-free brewers.
