Good start! I was hoping for ingredients list for beers, I’m lactose intolerant and recently discovered (the hard way) that some pale ales have lactose in them, and many beers don’t put the ingredients on the bottle - which I thought they had to do legally :<
I skip beers now because my lactose intolerance isn’t the “cheese makes me gassy” kind, but the “2 day splitting headache, flashes in vision, want to drill my skull, 10/10 on pain scale” kind, so it’s not worth the risk…
A beer database of ingredients to query would be awesome
- Arainach 5y agoYou can always ask the servers at the brewery and they'll usually know onhand. Lactose is used to get a creamy texture - if you're able to easily see through the beer, it's not going to have lactose, and if I'm unsure I just take an enzyme pill to be safe.
