Ireland: Guinness removes isinglass from filtration process

Guinness has removed fish guts from its filtration process after announcing the move in 2015, The Irish Sun reported on May 1.

For over 200 years, the stout was filtered using isinglass, a protein which comes from dried fish bladders.

The change to the brewing process means that vegans can now enjoy a pint of the black stuff, guilt free.

Guinness shared the following statement with PETA, who praised that news:

“The first stage of the roll out of the new filtration system concentrated on Guinness Draught in kegs.

“The brewery is delighted to confirm that this phase of the project is complete and all Guinness Draught produced in keg format at St. James’s Gate Brewery and served in pubs, bars and restaurants around the world, is brewed without using isinglass to filter the beer.”
