They have that very fancy portable filtration system on a trolly no?

that in itself would not make it anti vegan though

Spose question is how was info obtained and how current is it. O Haras clearly told them to p o.

BrewDorg

If you click into the beers listed, it shows whatever information they have from the brewery. In a lot of cases, it's direct contact with them via email. In other cases it's just info from the website.

O'Haras is listed as unknown because of this:
QuoteCompany email (November 2015):
"Currently the beers we produce are vegan friendly however there will be some old stock on the shelves in the country which may contain Isinglass. These will obviously be eradicated over time but as the bottles have an 18 month shelf life we have to state this."

Whereas this is what they got from McGargles, for example:
QuoteCompany email (June 2016)
"All our beer and cider are vegan friendly, we do all our own bottling and kegging on site. Our brewers are passionate about beer and make sure everything is up to standard, one of our brewers is vegan. They only use the best ingredients and don't allow anything no vegan into the brewery."

bentonite and biofine clear are both vegan friendly as far as i know. Probably loads more.
Not sure how bentonite would work in beer, but it's cracking stuff for wine.
