A member asked:
I get an allergic reaction to only one beer, how is this possible?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
An additive: There are many ingredients in beer including metabisulfite and you may be allergic to one of the ingredients which is higher in concentration or unique for that beer. On the other hand, you will need to provide a more detailed description on the reactions you have experienced.
