Company email (May 2024)
"We do not add any mammalian or animal derived products to our beers, except that our IPNA does contain a small addition of lactose. We are working on redesigning that recipe so that the lactose can be removed but it is present in the current formulation."

All our beers our vegan friendly, Enjoy!

Note from Rick:
"I just called over to Lagunita’s and double checked that all of their regular offerings are considered Vegan."

Email from the company:
"We don't use any animal products in our beers with the exception of our 1996 Olde GnarlyWine, which had honey added. Isinglass is a strange thing--how can something that smells so bad make beer taste better?? And who came up with the idea of fish swim bladders to clarify beer?? Sound like an unlikely accident..."
