Rhumsaa started a thread about the place. called The Eatery now I think they do some veggie stuff - unknown if vegan too I have considered the Greens pop up in Noa Bakehouse I think I have a few options for a Saturday lunch it's just evening meals and what is open on a Sunday that is on my mind Edited January 3, 2017 by Rhumsaa Quote Link to post Share on other sites

John Wright 8,087 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 I know that was a lighthearted response j2bad, unfortunately all Guinness products are produced using finings to clear the beer and settling suspended matter. There are no synthetic finings approved for use, finings, such as isinglass, are animal or fish products. So Guinness is not vegan. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
j2bad 896 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 (edited) Wrong, Guinness dropped fish bladders last year, it is now vegan. https://amp.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/shortcuts/2015/nov/03/guinness-vegan-fish-swim-bladders Edited January 4, 2017 by j2bad Quote Link to post Share on other sites

John Wright 8,087 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 I only knew of the issue because I have a vegan friend and going out has been a nightmare historically. I'm glad he can now drink Guinness. I checked with a vegan society friendly beer list before I posted as well! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Donald Trumps 5,536 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 I checked it too & J2bad is correct in that Guinness have dropped the use of isinglass for fining Quote Link to post Share on other sites
j2bad 896 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 I checked it too & J2bad is of course correct Quote Link to post Share on other sites
John Wright 8,087 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Actually I'm correct. They announced going isinglass free in November 2015, initially hoping for March 2016, later by end 2016. Here's the up to date info. Still not vegan everywhere. http://www.barnivore.com/beer/26/guinness Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There are no synthetic finings approved for use, finings, such as isinglass, are animal or fish products. So Guinness is not vegan. so you are still incorrect as there is a alternative, and just because a blog post 4 months ago on a Canadian site says nothing conclusive does not make your statement correct.
