Great info, DKershner. I lived in Bend for many years and miss it immensely. I was in town recently and stopped off at Deschutes. The new pub is amazing. They also mentioned they will be bottling their GF beer soon.

Blacklab, Deschutes started out their GF beer using my chestnuts chips. a few years back. Great hit. Brewmaster left and went on own. Program drop and when restarted went to other GF subs. Go to Google and bring up Guten Free Chestnut Beer. Reviews and articles on Trails eEnd Chestnuts will cover most of 1st two pages

n00b question regarding Oats...

This list says they add mouthfeel and body, but is seems they are typically used in Stouts and Porters. Would these work well in lighter styles? I prefer IPA's.

I use oats all the time in my barley based IPA recipes and pale ales too. Just be careful to ensure no cross contamination. You pretty much have to buy them online to ensure they are gluten free for Celiac purposes because oats are usually processed in wheat facilities on the same equipment (like LD Carlson's flaked oats are) or grown in a field rotated with wheat. A lot of the GF boards will say that is too much gluten. If you are only moderately sensitive you may be able to get away with the bulk bin rolled oats at Whole Foods (or other grocery store) which is what I like to use for pricing purposes. Just make sure to mash them while adding Amylase Enzyme (made by LD Carlson and available at most home brew supply shops).

Thanks, I think I might give it a try with some Bob's Red Mill oats from the health food store.
