Guest guest Posted December 20, 2008 Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 depends on the beverage are we talking str8, or a mixed drink? clear alcohol, wine, or beer? most hard alcohols will be vegan, like vodka, whiskey, gin, etc. there are always a few oddball exceptions, but they are pretty dang obvous (bacon vodka anyone?) (ew) wine..depends...a lot of wine is processed with some sort of animal prodct, be it gelatin, egg whites, or what have you...there are a bunch of vegan wines out there, have to know where you to recommend some beer...most beers in the US are vegan. again, there are exceptions. UK beers, much bigger issue. there they use isinglass, but even there, a number of beers are fine. stay away from anything cask conditioned. fraggle natenjade Dec 20, 2008 8:51 AM Alcoholic Beverage How can you tell if an alcoholic beverage is vegan?

Guest guest Posted December 20, 2008 Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 do you have a whole foods nearby? the ones here have a section for vegan and organic wines. it all depends on the wine. a lot are not vegan. and with some companies, it depends on the wine. there are a number of wineries out thier which are specically vegan, like Frey, and organic wine com. unfortunately, a bunch of em suck. definately look around. natenjade Dec 20, 2008 9:34 AM Re: Alcoholic Beverage I like my wine!

Guest guest Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 I check with the producers. I'm mostly a beer and wine drinker, in that order, so I don't know about the hard stuff. However, the last time I looked into it, most wines are clarified using animal products, often egg whites. This is more true of whites than reds. The Frey vineyard in California is vegan, however, and so is the Cooper Hill vineyard in Oregon. There are probably more, but that does me fine, so I haven't tried to find out about others. Beers and ales tend to be vegan, though there are exceptions. Guiness Ale, for example, is filtered through isenglass, which is a fish product. The mainstream beers are filtered with sand, so if you're a PBR, Miller or Bud person, you're fine. Oregon, where I live, is home to many microbreweries, and they're pretty much vegan with a few special products as exceptions. For instance, Widmer, Bridgeport and McMenamins are generally vegan. The New Belgium brewery in Colorado is mostly vegan, too, and so are the Washington State microbrews. I've found that vineyards and breweries are very good about giving information about their products. Go to their web sites and if you can't find information, just email the webmaster.

Guest guest Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 i dunno...

Guest guest Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 Oh, my dear person, you are preaching to the choir. We microbrew people up here in Oregon call these beers " no-brainers.

(and blake, we also have oskar blues here now as well..their scotch ale is great, glad that finally made it out here) fraggle Blake Wilson Dec 21, 2008 9:16 AM Re: Alcoholic Beverage New Belgium, brewers of the fine Fat Tire and other beers, is also solar powered, and about an hour from us. A righteous company making a righteous product.

However, the last time I looked into it, most wines are clarified using animal products, often egg whites. This is more true of whites than reds. The Frey vineyard in California is vegan, however, and so is the Cooper Hill vineyard in Oregon. There are probably more, but that does me fine, so I haven't tried to find out about others.Beers and ales tend to be vegan, though there are exceptions. Guiness Ale, for example, is filtered through isenglass, which is a fish product. The mainstream beers are filtered with sand, so if you're a PBR, Miller or Bud person, you're fine. Oregon, where I live, is home to many microbreweries, and they're pretty much vegan with a few special products as exceptions. For instance, Widmer, Bridgeport and McMenamins are generally vegan. The New Belgium brewery in Colorado is mostly vegan, too, and so are the Washington State microbrews.I've found that vineyards and breweries are very good about giving information about their products. Go to their web sites and if you can't find information, just email the webmaster.Bright blessings of the season!Cheers,Trish natenjade wrote:>> How can you tell if an alcoholic beverage is vegan?>> "Will we ever get to the point that we realize that we will be more secure when the rest of the world isn't living in poverty just so we can have nice running shoes?"
