My first GF beer

I feel that going out to restaurants is like taking your life in hands: rarely can one have confidence in the menus to deal with a challenging diet like mine.  I may go into that later.  What I want to say right now is that I had a Daura Damm beer and had no side-effects apart from a good sleep afterwards.

I largely became an alcohol-free zone about six months ago, say October 2015.  My first alcohol was a couple of small glasses of some rather expensive Sauterne which I had early in the New Year.  From this I am confidence I had no side effects.

Soon after I had a couple of pints of real ale.  Lovely stuff, but the side effects put me off beer.

About a month later I had a glass of white wine, and no side effects were noted.

Recently I tried a glass of red wine.  Bad news.  I won't try that again for a while.

I cannot ever see me drinking a lot.  The odd glass every month or so, usually on a special occasion.  But it is good to find some things that I feel my body can tolerate.
