1. i've had both pepperoni and bacon beer, but

even those were beer. barley.
there may have been a pound of meat in a 200 gal tank.

2. ??? Not all beer is vegan

I have no idea what's driving Kudlow's claim, but some beers are not entirely plant-based.

3. What's driving his claim is fearmongering and propaganda

Larry Kudlow claimed on Fox News that under President Joe Biden’s new climate plan grilled Brussels sprouts would replace hamburgers at the 4th of July.

Said Kudlow: “Ok, got that? No burger on July 4. No steaks on the barbecue. I’m sure Middle America is just going to love that. Can you grill those Brussels sprouts? So get ready. You can throw back a plant-based beer with your grilled Brussels sprouts and wave your American flag. Call it July 4th Green.”

His implication is that plant-based beer is a new thing being enforced upon Americans by Joe Biden or the Green New Deal or what have you, when in fact all beer is already plant-based. (It's not about whether beer is entirely vegan or not.)

4. No doubt... but a distinction of "plant-based beer" isn't a new thing he invented

6. Headline writers...

Plant-based beer is also not a thing that the brewery or the writer of that article invented. It's in the headline, but nowhere else.

IOW, it's not a thing.

The article was about a brewery replacing a fining agent (a tiny component of the beer-brewing process) in order to make its beer vegan.

7. It's hardly the only example

Boston Set to Open Fully Plant-Based Beer Hall For Delivery

The confusion here is that some people think that there's a gap between "plant-based" and "vegan" - while others (including many vegans) consider the terms to be synonymous. But it isn't a new term.

5. and the Fox News viewers....

slowly nod in agreement....as they sip from their plant based beers....

8. Two things come to mind...

1) I cannot decide if Kudlow, Mnuchin, or Carlson has the most imminently punchable face in the world...
2) Anyone listening to that soak Kudlow deserves to be fleeced of their money and self-respect simultaneously.

9. Is it made with dihydrogen monoxide?

10. Doesn't he know that all beer is plant based?
