New Holland The Poet

"All New Holland products available in distribution are vegan except for Dragon's Milk Tales of Gold BA Golden Ale, which is brewed with Milk Sugar. Going forward, unless a product has milk sugar/lactose it should be vegan."

"Unfortunately none of our beers are vegan as there is a filter that's a tiny part of the filtration process that uses fish scales as part of its makeup"

"I'm glad to tell you we do not use any fish scales or any fish parts in our filtration process. "Historically breweries have used something called isinglass from fish bladders. It is a filtration aid that helps particles bind together which are then easier to filter out. Some places do still use isinglass but we use a silicon based filter aid. We also do not use this filter aid in all of our beers and Dragon's Milk specifically does not. We use a centrifuge, which only uses gravity, to separate large and small particles."

"All of our beer is currently free of any animal products with the exception of our brand Beerhive. It is our honey ginger tripel and it contains locally sourced honey. All of our beer is processed and manufactured at either are plant or our pub."

"The only animal product we use in any of our beers is honey in Beerhive."
