"
The ingredients for Molson Ice are water, barley malt, yeast, corn syrup (maltose not high fructose corn syrup), hop extract. While Molson Coors does not offer medical advice on gluten, we know that the majority of celiac support groups advise that beer should be avoided by people with celiac disease. None of the ingredients in Henry Weinhard's sodas are derived from wheat, barley, rye or oats. Sodas do not contain gluten (the caramel coloring in root beer is derived from sugar). Gluten is a protein that can be found in wheat, rye, and barley. Both wheat and barley can be used as raw materials for beer. It is likely that beers made with wheat contain a higher level of gluten than traditional beers. Due to the brewing process and subsequent filtration, beer made from barley malt does not contain large amounts of protein; however some protein is essential for beer quality. Therefore, there is some protein and potentially, traces of gluten left in our products. Please contact your doctor prior to consuming our products if you do have celiac disease."

Company email (February 2017)
"The only products we have that are not vegan friendly are Molson Dry 10.1% and Worthington's White Shield as those products use isinglass finings."

From Rebecca, September 2014:
"I recently asked Rickards about their products [via Facebook] and they told me that everything they make is completely vegan."

Company email:
"We are pleased to inform you that we do not use any animal products or derivatives in any of our products.

Company email:
"Molson Coors products do not contain any animal ingredients, or animal bi-products; with the exception of Rickard's Honey Brown and Dave's Honey Brown which contain honey. All of our other products are vegan friendly."

Email from Matt:
"I just thought that I'd like to let you/anyone who uses your site know that I have contacted both Labatt and Molson (two of the bigger breweries based out of Canada), and both have told me that their beer is vegan friendly (except for the obvious ones, such as stouts and anything with "honey" in the name, but neither use any animal products in the fining process)."

From Deirdre:
I emailed the company and they assured me that their products are not filtered or produced with animal products. The vegan unfriendly ones are (obviously) the stouts and anything with "honey" that was mentioned already. The company produces alot of beers. Among their brands are:

Molson Canadian
Coors Light
Molson Export
Molson Dry
Pilsner
Molson Coors
Corona Extra

(Note that Molson and Coors have merged, but the info above may not apply outside of Canada)

From Alissa:

Thanks for your e-mail. We are always interested in hearing from our consumers.

We are pleased to advise you that Molson products do not contain any rennet, isinglas, gelatin or bone char.
