What Causes Breathing Difficulty With Itching And Body Chills After Drinking Beer?

My two daughters and I drank about 16 ounces of beer and got a severe sudden red flushing reaction, combined with itching, chills. One daughter went to the emergency room as she had the most severe reaction and complained about trouble breathing. Any thoughts?
