                                According to the vegan alcohol resource Barnivore, many popular commercial hard ciders are not suitable for vegans due to the use of animal-derived processing aids during clarification. The seemingly straightforward question of whether apple cider is vegan has a surprising and complex answer that depends entirely on the brand and manufacturing process.
