I have now spoken to the brewer. And been advised that yes, the 0.5% Ghost ship is certainly vegan."

All our cask beers and bottled beers contain isinglass. Our beer is all made here in Southwold by ourselves so the processing would always be the same. The Cask Diamond Jubilee Ale we produced contained Honey." Pours a clear golden-amber colour, producing roughly two fingers of lumpy, soapy white head that steadily dissipates. Five minutes later it has been worn down to a sudsy collar and cap, with several rings of lovely, delicate lace adhering to the glass - a fine-looking ale for sure. Understated aroma of citrus, melon, doughy malts and an earthy, herbal, weakly spicy hop presence; hints of candied orange peel, tea and berries.There are many beers that are similar to Adnams Ghost Ship, which is an English Pale Ale. The most obvious choices would be Marstons EPA, Fuller’s London Pride, or Timothy Taylor’s Landlord. The vast majority of our beer is bottled at Martsons in Burton on Trent. They do use Isinglass as part of the regular filtration process. They can, on request, filter without Isinglass but they will only do this with low volume beers as it impacts their capacity, we do brew two beer for M&S which don’t use Isinglass, M&S Suffolk bitter and M&S Christmas ale.

Sadly not, Ghost Ship is brewed using malted barley and rye. Both of which contain gluten. The 0.5% abv version of Ghost Ship also contains barley and rye, so is also not gluten-free. Is Adnams Ghost Ship Vegan? unfortunately at the moment our beers are not vegan however the good news is that we will be brewing a healthier range of brews in 2018 which will be vegan" It’s also worth adding in the spirits. We produce Gin, Vodka and whisky, amongst other spirits here. None of these use animal products in the distillation." All kegged beer and seasonal/small batch cans are suitable for vegans as well as certain mini kegs.I have had confirmation from our Head Brewer that unfortunately Sole Star isn’t suitable for vegetarians. Although our new Ghost ship 0.5% is." [vegetarian, but is it vegan? -ed]
