Vegan Festival Fun
Saturday afternoons were meant to be with good food and drink. We had the luxury of spending the afternoon with some of LA’s finest food and crafted beers, but more importantly with a bunch of fun people and good music. We had the opportunity to sample vegan brews from more than 15 breweries and vegan eats from a variety of LA-area restaurants and food trucks. You might think that all beer — being principally brewed with grain, yeast, and hops — is vegan, but the truth is brewers have long turned to animal products to help produce a superior beer.
A great Article in the LA Times about the festival.
