When you think of BBQ, meats often come to mind, but there’s so much exciting variety out there!<\/p>\n

For those embracing a plant-based lifestyle or simply seeking lighter meal options, vegetarian BBQ is a delicious and healthy alternative<\/strong> that’s definitely worth trying!<\/p>\n

One of the best things about any great BBQ \u2013 whether it\u2019s vegetarian or not \u2013 is the drink pairing, and what could be better than beer? Beer is the perfect partner<\/b> for a vegetarian BBQ! Its wide range of flavours, from crisp and refreshing to rich and robust, makes it an ideal choice to accompany the delicious, smoky, grilled goodness of a vegetarian BBQ.<\/p>\n

Beer is suitable for vegetarians. It’s as simple as that. The only exception is if a brewer has used animal products as ingredients, but this is very rare, thankfully.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

However, it’s essential to consider that not all beers are created equal, especially if you’re adhering to vegan principles. The great thing about beer is that it’s usually made from plant-based ingredients like barley, hops, and water. But some beers undergo a filtration process that uses animal-derived products such as isinglass (from fish bladders), gelatin, or casein. These agents help clarify the beer, which is great, but unfortunately they do compromise its vegan purity. So, if you’re looking to keep your vegetarian BBQ 100% plant-based, it’s a great idea to seek out brands that clearly label their beers as vegan. That way, you can be sure that no animal products were used at any stage of production!<\/p>\n

And the great news is that unfiltered beers are also vegan! At Fermento<\/a>, we are proud to say that all our beers are vegan. They are unfiltered, and only the honey beer Ventuno has a little bit of honey, which makes this beer not vegan.<\/p>\n

In this blog article<\/a>, I’m thrilled to delve into the incredible world of pairing beers with veggies to create an absolutely amazing vegan experience, and with cheese to make this an absolutely delicious vegetarian combination. I loved to experiment on the BBQ and to share my vegetarian BBQ and beer pairing tips!<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
