Beers that do not use animal products or derivatives as ingredients or as part of the brewing process and brewers that produce such beers. To be included in this category the brewer only has to produce one beer that meets the criteria so in some cases produce beers that do not. In these cases the details of the beers that meet the criteria can be found in the brewer article.
"Animal products" typically refer to parts of animal carcasses such as various tissues like isinglass, gelatin, bone, rennet, cochineal and blood. Beers which include animal produced substances such as dairy and honey come under the category by virtue of the fact they are permissable ingredients in a vegetarian diet.
Some brewers state their beers are suitable for vegans or their beers are "vegan friendly". In essence there is no difference and many beers which are suitable for vegetarians may be suitable for vegans. Some brewers choose to state their beer is "vegan friendly" as opposed to saying it is suitable for vegans to acknowledge the fact that veganism tends to embrace a whole lifestyle as opposed to just a diet as is usually the case with vegetarians. For instance, a vegan may reject a particular brand of beer for ethical reasons if the brewer also produces other beers that do include animal products, or if the adhesive used to stick the label to the bottle uses an animal by-product. It is virtually impossible to say whether a beer is suitable for all vegans so some brewers will use the term "vegan friendly" to denote the fact their beer may be acceptable in a vegan diet or lifestyle.
