Hi guys. I know I haven't been around posting much, but I do lurk as much as possible, and I think about you guys a lot. I'm sorry my first post in a looonng time is about a reaction, but it was something I never thought would happen, so I figured I would share...
Last night we went to a bar that was crazy busy. They were serving on tap a ton of different beers from local places I am very familiar with. .one of the brewerys makes a pb&j beer that does have nuys brewed into it. Long story short, I ordered a beer thay was a chocolate beer I love from another brewery, and I took a sip, and it tasted like grapes. It didn't even click that she has given me th pb&j beer. I sent it back for the right beer and she gave me the same glass filLed to the top. Took another small sip and it was the same beer. I don't know if she kept pouring the wrong beer or if the taps were mixed up or what. I sent it back again and we paid the bill because she was awful to begin with and we were going to go home.
My husband asked me in the car if I was itchy and I was. He turned on the light and had a rash starting to spread. He asked me what the beer had tasted like. I told him grapes and he just looked at me like oh crap. He immediately clicked it had been the pb&j beer.
Thankfully, no breathing problems, which was strange because usually I have that right away, but he did make.me go to the ER where I got an IV with steriods, benadry, and pepcid to knock out the rash and an upset stomach. I feel much better today.
Like I said, I'm so sorry I haven't posted much and that my first post in a long time is about a reaction.
I don't know if the brewing process changes the compounds or if I just got really.lucky that all I had was a rash which is not typically where the reaction stops for me, but that could have been a lot worse, and I'm for sure going to call the bar and tell them what happened.
Eta: sorry about the typos. I'm mobile and still sleepy from all the meds. I stood up and I fell like I've been hit by a truck which is typically how I feel the day after.
