Finding a safe and delicious gluten free alcoholic beverage has become growingly difficult.
From the ongoing debate about distilled alcohol being gluten free or not to the accidental mix ups by the bartender, it’s a challenge to find a gluten free alcoholic beverage that works for you and your diet.
The Ultimate Gluten Free Alcohol List
In this gluten free alcohol listing, you’ll find all the beers, hard ciders, vodkas, rums, tequilas, and other hard liquors that are gluten free. Just note that if a product or brand has (don’t drink if allergic to gluten) it’s because it’s not truly safe for anyone with Celiac or a gluten sensitivity. Although those alcohols are “gluten free” or “wheat free” there is still a very small trace of gluten in them, even after the distillation process. Although this trace of glutenous is microscopic, really sensitive Celiacs or gluten allergenic folks may have a negative reaction to those products.
So just be safe and drink what you think is best for your body.
Warning…
Although I am very confident in this listing, I am human, so mistakes may have been made. I urge you to please double check the labels of alcoholic beverages to ensure that they are truly gluten free.
So with that being said, let’s just straight into this gluten free alcohol list.

Gluten Free Vodka Brands
Vodka is a very tricky alcohol for gluten free drinkers. You see, technically, during thedistillation process of the vodka, the gluten proteins from wheat based vodkas is supposed to be removed. However, many people have claimed that these vodkas (made from wheat) still contain gluten, thus leaving them feeling sick and nauseous. So to be safe, stay away from all wheat based vodkas if you have Celiac disease or a gluten sensitivity.
However, you can still opt for a non-wheat, potato, corn, or grape based vodka which are typically cleared for gluten free consumption.
