"SeaQuench has no honey or animal biproducts (milk/lactose/casein or honey), and we do not use isinglass or gelatin in it as well. Instead we use filters and center fuges for our SeaQuench Beers."

Company email (October 2018)
"We do not make claims that our products are “Vegan” or “Vegan Friendly.” We have made and, in some cases, continue to make products that included the following:

* Meat - Beer for Breakfast, Choc Lobster
* Lactose - Beer for Breakfast
* Honey - Midas Touch, Chateau Jiahu, Bitches Brew, Urkontinent, Theobroma, American Beauty

"Other than those ingredients mentioned above, we do not use any animal-based or animal-derived ingredients, including things like isinglass, gelatin or other albumin materials. All of our product contact surfaces are frequently and thoroughly cleaned between brands. However, we do not specifically test for the presence or absence of any of the aforementioned ingredients listed above. We ask consumers to assess their own risk threshold when making purchasing decisions.

"Finings (Clarex, Isinglass, Gelatin, Albumin) - We do not use any finings to clarify our beers. We achieve clarity through centrifugation and/or filtration through diatomaceous earth."

"There are no animal products in Punkin Ale or our filtration system so yes, Punkin is technically considered vegan although nothing is specified on our label to that effect."
