In Murica we only eat beef-based rice! What’s next? Plant-based beer?

You make a joke, but in fact many beers and wines aren't vegan.

I knew I was doing the ethical thing by sticking to liquor!

This is largely because of the traditional use of fish-based finings (isinglass) which clarify yeast from beer. Just about any keg beer, including small batch and craft, won't use this any more, its not needed or effective. And for bottled and cask conditioned beers/ales the price and effectiveness of vegan finings has gone down and up respectively quite a bit in the past few years, so non-vegan beers are definitely in the minority. Even in the UK (where cask is far more common).

No idea about wine though.

Yeasts are eukayotes part of the fungal kingdom you dolt. Although looking at the rest of your comments in this thread, it's clear you're just acting in bad faith for some reason.

Most of the big name beers here are actually vegan. Regardless of what your feelings are on American beer, they're mostly vegan friendly.
