    From what animal source does alcohol derive?

    Do vegans consider petrochemicals to be “animal suffering”?

        Some beer and wine use gelatin for make them clear and less cloudy. I don’t think distilled alcohols do, however.

        it’s easier now but for some time it was very difficult to find vegetarian/vegan wine. From eggs to blood, there is a long list that is used for “collage”

      It’s a bunch of clowns who believe that fermented alcohol must be filtered/clarified with animal bones or something similar. They know nothing about clearing fermented drinks, of course, but it’s a nice “GOTCHA” to throw at vegans. The funny thing is that lots of vegans are straight-edge.
