Company Email:
" Hardcore Cider is Vegan...it contains apples, and it is back
sweetened with sweetener but we are not brewing in the 19th century so
we would never us eggs (albumin?), or other animal products...no
modern brewers use animal products except for honey or isinglas
finings for a specific type of traditional cask conditioned
ale....finings for all modern beers is made form seaweed"

From their website FAQ:
Q: Are Samuel Adams beers vegan?
A: The Samuel Adams brewers do not use any animal products in the beer.

Oh, but the honey thing confuses the meat people...

From Dadga:
hey, just a note on sam adam's... their cherry wheat beer has honey in it, tho their cream stout has no dairy.

Via Erik:

Thanks for reaching out! As you've found already, most of our beers are vegan. However, some of our beers are made with honey, which of course some vegans consider off limits. These beers include Cherry Wheat and Honey Porter.
