So here's the deal, I've been brewing for about 8 years and found out two years ago that my infrequent gout-flare ups may be due to beer, especially homebrew.
I've had the idea of incorporating some of the prominent gout treatments into a homebrew, primarily out of spite. For those of you lucky enough to not be concerned about it, gout remedies include:
I'm thinking of making a low abv cherry-ginger ale (maybe a saison) with some orange peel for vitamin C. I'm thinking something not too hopped so it will have a little shelf life
My main questions: any other homebrewers that suffer from gout that want to complain about it with me? and: Any thoughts on recipes or ideas for this brew?

- cherries
- green tea
- coffee
- ginger
- kale/romaine/leafy greens except spinach for some stupid reason
- vitamin C
- baking soda
