Coeliacs - help is at hand!

We've been trying to expand our Gluten Free range of beers and have added a couple of really good products to our list recently.  Our list isn't very long, we've only 5 Gluten Free Beers for sale but it's better than most shops.

Greens Premium Pils (33cl btl - €2.50 each)
Greens Premium Pils’ is brewed with natural spring water and a selection of the finest hops and de-glutenised barley malt. It's 4.8% abv.  Green’s beers DO NOT contain any of the following allergens or products thereof: Gluten, Crustaceans, Eggs, Fish, Peanuts, Soya beans, Milk, Lactose, Nuts, Celery, Mustard, Sesame seeds, Sulphur dioxide and sulphites.

Estrella Daura (33cl btl - €2.50 each)
Brewed by the Estrella Damm brewery in Barcelona, Estrella Daura is a 5.4% mainstream pilsner lager with a universal flavour and character.  It is fruity and floral on the nose with a hint of sweet spices.  This smooth and lightly effervescent beer has a fresh, creamy texture and pleasant lingering aftertaste.  Estrella Daura has won several awards:
  • World Beer Awards 2008: World’s Best Gluten-Free Beer
  • World Beer Awards 2009: World’s Best Gluten-Free Beer
  • Winner of the Free From Food Awards 2010

GFA (Gluten Free Ale) abv 4.8% (500ml bottle - €3.75 each)
A tawny ale with aromas of Cascade, Liberty and Challenger hops and specially prepared dark sugars providing full bodied initial sweetness giving way to pronounced fruit and hop character with a strong citrus finish.

GFL (Gluten Free Lager) abv 5.2% (500ml bottle - €3.75 each)
A Pale lager style beer with an initial fullness complemeted by a fruit character, dervived from East Kent Goldings and Continental Styrian hops, finishing with bitterness and citrus notes. Uniquely balanced and best served chilled.

Glutaner (33cl bottle €3.75 each) abv 5.2%
Glutaner Premium is an easy drinking, 100% gluten-free, crisp, malty Extra Blond Belgian Pils. Its grain mix includes sorghum malt, teff and rice, and is comparable to a premium lager in both taste and appearance. It is brewed in a gluten-free environment using gluten-free ingredients and after it is brewed it is checked to ensure no traces of gluten are present.

If you're looking to pick up a few bottles, ring ahead to your local Molloys to make sure they've got your preferred Gluten Free beer in stock.  We can always order in stock especially if need be.
