Unless you are hypersensitive to gluten, gluten free beer is nonsensical. A slice of bread contains 124,000 ppm of gluten. Lagers have 63 ppm, stouts 360 ppm, and ales can have up to 3,000 ppm. So even an ale has roughly 3% of the gluten a single slice of bread has.

87% of beer sold in the US is a lager. That is .0005% of a slice of bread's gluten.

you would have celiacs at that point, sensitivity to gluten is just marketing for the gluten free companies that people that dont have celiacs. wheat allergy is a different disease. best way to check is through blood tests, and noticible symptoms. most people that buy gluten free foods, that doesnt have the disease dont even know the connection between the proteins and the disease.
