Cashmere Brut IPA is Gluten Free!

We've had Cashmere Brut IPA tested and we're delighted that it is Gluten Free!

For quite some time, we’ve thought it likely that our Cashmere Brut IPA would be gluten free, but as with all things that could be harmful to anyone, we had to make sure. Along with many of our other beers, Cashmere is treated with Brewer’s Clarity, which contains a highly specific fungal endopeptidase enzyme to help remove haze from beer. One of the things that is cleared out by the enzyme is gluten – reducing the residual gluten in the beer is effectively a side effect of reducing the haze and trying to make our beer clearer.

As all our beer is vegan, we don’t use isinglass finings in our beers, meaning we have to find other ways to make them clear. We use Brewer’s Clarity as part of that process meaning that a beer being both gluten free and vegan is no coincidence.

We recently sent off a sample of our bottled Cashmere Brut IPA to Murphy & Son for testing and today we received the results: the beer has less than 10 parts per million gluten, meaning it’s well within the 20 ppm legal limit to call it gluten free.

We’re always looking for ways to make our beers more accessible. Making them all vegan was an easy first step, but we’ve been dragging our heels on taking on the gluten free world because we’ve had so much else going on – but now we’re proud to say that our Cashmere Brut IPA is gluten free and we’re thrilled that this means that even more people will be able to enjoy it!
