GFA still the best

Ive tried all the gluten free Hambleton beers and I've come to the conclusion that their classic GFA is still the best. Possibly the best ale on the market.

Great beer, great service, great people
As a coeliac it's always good to find a gluten free beer and they are thankfully becoming more common, however in my experience most brewers produce very limited gluten free options - normally a take it or leave it lager style beer. That's where Hambleton's differ they've worked consistently over a number of years to make their entire range gluten free whilst maintaining quality and taste, you really can't tell it's gluten free - so if you prefer a traditional ale whether you need it gluten free or not give their GFA a try you won't be disappointed. If you prefer a different style you've a full range to choose from. Thank you Hambleton's from the coeliac community - your efforts on our behalf are greatly appreciated.

GFA beer
Bought this for the first time, not disappointed at all, wasn't sure about this gluten free thing, but after drinking a few bottles, totally blown away by how good this beer is. One of my favourites now.

Enjoyable Gluten free ale
I am not an expert, but know what I like- and I really like this gluten-free Ale from Hambleton. I like a traditional-tasting ale as well as a bitter- not a fan of the anaemic lager/ales style offerings masquerading as beer, which seem so prevalent these days. When I developed my gluten sensitivity I was initially distraught until I discovered this craft brewery ale catering for folk like me. Ordering was simple and delivery was super quick. Very pleased and delighted to find that I can order directly from them. I had previously bought this through a third-party website but had been badly let down by it. I shall continue going directly to Hambleton now.

Gluten free ale
Found this in a pub in Lyndhurst a few years ago. Love it and have ordered it on line several times. It is wonderful to be able to get gluten free range of beers that taste just as good or better than their regular counterparts. Can't wait for the low alcohol version to be gluten free as well. Keith

Happy GF drinker
Can’t say how chuffed I am to have found you. Way out the best non draught GF beer I’ve drunk. Your GFA is now the only beer I drink at home.

Gorgeous Flavoursome Alcohol (GFA)
I have been ordering beers from this brewery for some years now (even though I live some 250 miles away) and will continue to do so! Which for me is a reflection of how much I value this beer and being a ceoliac allows me to enjoy the taste of real ale with no dietary problems

Ale delight
A lovely drinkable ale for those who don't like their beer too dry / hoppy. Plenty of flavour and a good head once poured. I am so glad I managed to find it. I can drink beer again.

Gluten Free but full of taste
This beer demonstrates that it is possible to have a gluten-free beer without losing anything in taste. A good malty taste with plenty of hops and at 4.8% an impressive beer.

The best gluten-free real ale
Having been a real ale fan for years, when I was diagnosed as coeliac about 8 years ago, I was gutted that there was nothing for me in the marketplace. A holiday to the Lake District and a visit to a localised supermarket introduced me to Hambleton’s gluten free ale. Probably the highlight of my holiday! It’s a rich, aromatic, hoppy beer that’s cheaper on line than in the supermarket, despite shipping costs. Thank you Hambleton’s Brewery
