Glutenberg Variety 4Pk

Glutenberg Variety 4Pk is a curated four-pack of gluten-free craft beers from Montreal’s Glutenberg Brewery, featuring their Pale Ale (5.5% ABV), White (5.0%), Red (5.0%), and Blonde (4.5%). At the 2012 World Beer Cup, Glutenberg swept all three medals in the Gluten-Free Beer category — Gold for the Red, Silver for the Pale Ale, and Bronze for the Blonde — establishing the brewery as a global leader in gluten-free brewing.Quick Facts: ABV: 4.5%–5.5% (varies by style)  |  Origin: Montreal, Quebec, Canada  |  Style: Gluten-Free Craft Beer Variety Pack  |  Brewery: Glutenberg Craft BreweryProduction & HeritageGlutenberg is a dedicated gluten-free brewery based in Montreal, Quebec — meaning every piece of equipment, every batch, and every recipe is built around gluten-free production. There is no risk of cross-contamination from barley or wheat, which distinguishes the operation from breweries that produce gluten-free beers as a sideline. The core grain bill relies on millet and corn along with demerara sugar, water, hops, and yeast, with specialty ingredients like chestnuts, quinoa, and amaranth appearing in individual styles. The brewery has swept the Canadian Brewing Awards in the gluten-free category every year since 2020, earning Beer of the Year honors along the way.Tasting NotesBlonde (4.5% ABV): Airy and golden with floral, slightly herbaceous aromas and a bright lemon character. The palate is light-bodied and clean, finishing dry and refreshing.American Pale Ale (5.5% ABV): Orange and grapefruit aromas lead into a savory, resinous mid-palate with pronounced citrus hop notes. Full-bodied for its strength, with a balanced bitterness that lingers without overwhelming.White (5.0% ABV): Brewed with quinoa and amaranth, this witbier-inspired ale opens with a soft, grainy profile and subtle hints of coriander and curaçao orange peel. Gentle and refreshing on the palate, it drinks easy with a smooth finish.Red (5.0% ABV): Glutenberg’s most decorated beer, brewed with two types of chestnuts. Roasted nut aromas give way to layered flavors of caramel and coffee, yielding a malty, medium-bodied ale with notable depth.How to Drink the Glutenberg Variety PackEach style in the pack has its own ideal serve. The Blonde and White are best enjoyed cold (38–42°F) as standalone refreshers. The Pale Ale stands up well in a Michelada, where its citrus hop character complements lime and hot sauce. The Red’s caramel and coffee notes make it a strong candidate for a Beer Float with vanilla ice cream. The White pairs naturally with a Beergarita (beer margarita), where its coriander and orange peel notes echo classic margarita aromatics.Best For

Redbridge, brewed by Anheuser-Busch, is a single-style sorghum-based lager positioned as a mass-market gluten-free option, while Glutenberg produces a broader range of craft styles using millet, corn, and specialty grains in a dedicated gluten-free facility — and consistently outperforms in competition and consumer preference.Is Glutenberg good for people new to gluten-free beer? The variety pack is one of the best entry points available because it includes four distinct styles, allowing newcomers to discover which profile suits their palate without buying separate packages.Where is Glutenberg made? Glutenberg is brewed at a dedicated gluten-free facility in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, where the brewery focuses exclusively on gluten-free production around the clock.What foods pair well with Glutenberg beers? The Blonde pairs well with grilled chicken or light salads due to its crisp, dry finish. The Pale Ale complements spicy tacos and grilled shrimp.

The standard format is a four-pack containing one can each of the Blonde, Pale Ale, White, and Red.Is the Glutenberg Variety Pack worth the price? The pack positions in the premium craft beer tier, but considering the dedicated gluten-free production, the award-winning pedigree across all four styles, and the built-in tasting-flight format, it represents strong value for anyone seeking serious gluten-free craft beer.Why Glutenberg?Glutenberg is not a conventional brewery dabbling in gluten-free — it is a 100% dedicated gluten-free operation, and that singular focus translates directly into quality. The 2012 World Beer Cup triple-medal sweep remains one of the most remarkable performances in the gluten-free beer category, and the brewery’s dominance at the Canadian Brewing Awards since 2020 confirms sustained excellence. This variety pack distills that track record into four cans, each representing a distinct style brewed without compromise. For anyone who has written off gluten-free beer as a lesser alternative, the Glutenberg Variety Pack is the most compelling counterargument on the shelf.
