Vegan Beers

[soulsnbones]

Any one know which NZ beers are and are not vegan. The only one I know is safe for sure is Green Man. Fuckin' tasty too!

Heeeeaps of them have dog piss in them aye... I think green man might, so it might not be vegan.

I heard Guiness was filtered through the embryos of unborn african children hence the dark colour, I'm pretty sure that makes it vegan.

most are vegan. Guinness, castle and vb have gelatin in them. And cask anything is always dodge.

Heard scrumpy wasn’t vegan… anyone know?

^^ beer uses isinglass not gelatin (maybe some use gelatin, but not guinness or any others I know).

[dustbinflowers]

isinglass isn't very vegan at all- many wines use albumen as a clearing agent too. Ring or email the company if it's not on the label.

Got told by my hard out Vegan friend that anything that comes from DB is Vegan...

sorry you forgot to write 'very few' before that sentence 'only crap beer' would have done too.

calling guinness vegan is just joking btw.

Wasn't saying isinglass is vegan, just saying that it's isinglass not gelatin.

Are you meaning I should have clarified that not all beer uses isinglass? Bit hard to understand. But yeah, it's mostly just the crap beer that uses isinglass.

beer is made with yeast, thats a living organism....

murderers!

some beers use albumen too, the only way around it is to only drink german purity law compliant beer since brands like heineken will just lie to anmyone who asks unnofficially.

heh, its always pretty funny seeing a wine bottle with 'contains fish and eggs' printed on the back... yuck.
