I think there’s some sort of foaming agent in Michelob. Guinness may have small amounts of fish guts in it, they’re used as “fining” to help settle out sediment.

The fish guts you refer to is called isinglass . It does a good job of clearing up cloudy beer. ( proteins are what makes beer cloudy ) Better than any of the alternatives except for comercial filtration, which American mass produced lagers are almost all put through.

I don’t mind a little isinglass in my beer. It is not at all perceivable. If isinglass is used it is craft brewed by a smaller guy, and almost always better than the tasteless mass produced lagers.

I have always been a fan of Wiedemann beer...very hoppy...a little bitter

Isinglass....is a kind of finings that is used to clarify beer. I always thought it to be some kind of "moss"... But maybe not..
