What Makes Some Beers Not Vegan?

Hosted by Evan Kleiman Apr. 27, 2013 Food and Drink

Tony Yanow is the owner of Golden Road Brewing, Tony's Darts Away and Mohawk Bend, all of which are havens for vegan eaters and drinkers. He explains that some small brewers use gelatin or fish finings to clarify their beer, which makes their brews not vegan friendly. This year he's hosting the 4th Annual Vegan Beer and Food Festival with vegan blogger Quarry Girl and the Roxy.
