Great News, Guinness is Going Vegan!

Great News, Guinness is Going Vegan!

 

If you’re wondering, “What?! How is beer not vegan?” you’re not alone.

Many people do not realize that the majority of commercial beers and wines contain a fish bladder gelatin commonly referred to as ‘isinglass’. Isinglass is fish gelatin which is used during the alcohol filtration process, meaning traces of fish bladders are present in the finished product.

The good news is, Guinness is finally ditching it (after 256 years!) and moving to a vegan-friendly filtering alternative. This decision was prompted from a longstanding campaign and several online petitions from beer-loving vegans.
