Alcohol allergies are fairly uncommon these days, but many people can be sensitive to other ingredients found in some beverages.
Mark Rood, MD, physician at Cleveland Clinic, explains that ‘the most common reactions to beer are to types of grains, modified grain proteins hops, yeast, molds or barleys. Sensitivities are also possible to the additives that are present in some beers, including sulfites, sodium benzoate, or tartrazine.’
Additionally, the American College of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology also warns that yeast, histamines and sulfites can trigger allergic-like reactions for some people. The most common signs of a potential intolerance to one of these ingredients are local itching, wheezing or nasal congestion.
