A recent email exchange for those interested:



I am a relatively new vegetarian and I just found out last night that breweries often use meat products in processing beer.
Do you use any meat products in your processing?
Thanks for your time and consideration.



There are no meats or meat by-products in our beer.
The items you are concerned about are “finings” which are used to clarify the beer.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finings
Many of the people that hear about this process hear about “Isinglass” which is a fish by-product
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isinglass
or about Gelatin which is a mammal by-products
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gelatin(this is where the historical idea of sending old horses to the glue factory came from since gelatines were derived from hides and bones and used to make glue)
We do not use these products.
To the best of my knowledge, we use NO animal products or by-products.

Please feel free to contact me with any other issues or concerns you may have.
