A quick peruse of wikipedia seems to suggest that the only way for a homebrewer to make a gluten-free beer is with an all grain recipe, using rice, sorghum, corn or buckwheat and a very small proportion (or even none at all) of barley.

Unfortunately, it does not appear to be possible to do using regular kits, extract recipes or partials.

It was discussed on the Sanders show earlier this year. Check out the archives.
