Beer Allergy

I was wondering what in Beer could I be allergic to that would make me puke after no more than 2 sips.  I can drink hard alcohol and never puke, but if I take a few sips of beer it's instant projectile vomit... and then I am fine again.

I know a couple of people who are allergic to barley, which is present in varying amounts as barley or malt in beers. But they break out in a rash after consuming it rather than have it come straight back up.

This is not allergy to beer, which by itself is very rare. You just do not seem to tolerate the taste of beer.
