Barry Island IPA is Not Vegan Friendly

Company email (November 2017)
"Unfortunately, our coffee porter is brewed traditionally using isinglass, so would not be suitable for vegans."

Company email (December 2016):
"At the moment our position is that like the vast majority of brewers, our beers are produced by traditional methods which includes the use of isinglass finings to clarify the beer. However, this position is not set in stone and should we find an alternative that produces beer of an equally-high standard in the future we would consider changing from isinglass. At the moment we do not believe there is a synthetic alternative of the same standard available."

Company email (March 2014): (http://brainscraftbrewery.com/)
"Barry Island IPA does use isinglass finings in its production as per other Brains beers
Any beer containing any other ingredients such as Lactose Sugars, Honey etc will be labelled as such
All our beers are brewed here in Cardiff"
