Is this some kind of elaborate way to say they are the same beer?

Yes. Discussed briefly on this board - Coater can add insight, ashe has knowledge of such that could help you...


I suggest he begin immunotherapy, i.e., keep drinking them until the symptoms resolve

Really tho, your options are:

1) drink thru it till u build immunity
2) load up on antihistimines until it levels out
3) get allergy tested for such for more immediate results (3-6months), develop said treatment regimine (shots, drops, etc) until you get right..getting you back to what 1) would have done over time



The funniest part of the whole thread is that stop drinking the beer is not even considered an option.

Those beers give me loose stool, but not every time. I've document when it happens in my journal. Old Envie never gave me a problem, but new Envie does most of the time especially the last two batches. Opus 1 loose bowels, Opus 2 no issues. GiTM 2-4 runs, 7, 9,11 runs, but the last batch did the opposite. The new batch makes me constipated.


Some brewers use Magnesium Sulfate (Epsom Salt) as a water treatment. Maybe Parish uses it in their brews and gives you the poots.

If I drink more than 4-5 beers, I break out, too. I can pop a benadryl, but then that knocks me out. I can feel it coming on when my nose gets stopped up, and then soon after I turn red.


Use a second generation antihistamine and it won't knock you out like that since it doesn't cross the blood brain barrier.

It seems we are consuming them like never before. It stands to reason that allergies would be part of the deal.

I think I have allergies to them as well. If I drink more than 5 or 6 beers in an evening I feel terrible the next day.

My wife is the same way. If she drinks more than one she feels awful. Now we just give her a Zyrtec and she is good to go.

Ok so
The other night I had 5 of the new Opus and was itching like crazy.
Then two nights later had 5 new Envies and didn't sneeze one time,but had a slight running nose. But didn't itch one time since.
