"I searched on the internet as to possible beer ingredients that would contain animal by-products and came across the list below. I discussed it with our brewers and operations manager who all confirmed that Black Star does not use anything in the list below. In particular, no clarifying agents, anti-foaming agents, colorings, nor any animal derivatives are used in the brewing process.
Thus, you can feel free to consumer Black Star freely and introduce it to your veg*n friends and community. Please let me know if you have any additional questions about Black Star and I would be more than happy to answer them. Don’t forget to check us out on www.Facebook.com/blackstarbeer!
