Sumac Vegan Beer Festival Saturday 5th June and Sunday 6th June

A Vegan | 22.05.2010 10:21 | Animal Liberation | Sheffield

Come along and sample quality ales and beer, with a clear conscience, at the first ever Sumac vegan beer festival.

If you prefer your beer without fish in it then read on! Were you aware that many beers and other forms of alcohol, including real ale, can be made using isinglass finings, the swim bladders of fish, amongst other animal derivatives?

Finings are widely used to speed up the settling of sediment, a process that can work perfectly well with the addition of just a little more time!

We at Nottingham Vegan Society want to show that vegan ale is just as tasty as it's fish containing counterpart but better for you and the natural environment.

Live entertainment and food available.

Members and guests only on Friday evening then open to all on Saturday and Sunday from midday until late.
