Barnivore is a directory where you can easily search for vegan wine, beer, liquor and more.

From the site: "Brewmasters, winemakers, and distillers may include animal ingredients in their products directly, or they might use them in the processing and filtration.

When making the product, dairy, honey, and other things are ingredients in the final recipe.

When filtering the drinks prior to bottling, companies can use things like isinglass (from fish bladder,) gelatin, egg whites, and sea shells, among other things. These products grab onto the impurities and make it easier to catch them in the filters, though there are many animal-free alternatives in use."

Always remember that if you drink, drink responsibly ๐Ÿป

Hell yeah, great info. I knew about the non-vegan filtering processes and stuff like that so I've always had to google whether specific alcohol is vegan.

If you know a bar owner, would be cool if you could nudge them toward adding a vegan tag to vegan drinks on the menu.
