MillerCoors will begin marketing a “naturally gluten free” version of Coors called Coors Peak Copper Lager which will be sold in Seattle and Portland, according to an article on adage.com.
“In an email, MillerCoors described Coors Peak as a “light to medium-bodied crisp copper lager” with a “malty, slight caramel profile offset by subtly spicy hops and the finish is slightly bitter, crisp and perfectly balanced.” The beer contains 170 calories per 12-ounce serving.
“To make the beer gluten-free, Coors will replace barley with brown rice, malted brown rice and protein from peas, a spokesman said. The beer also must also be made separately from beers that contain gluten in order to comply with gluten-free certification rules.” Read entire adage.com article HERE.
