The only exceptions is when isinglass is used as a fining agent. Isinglass is powdered fish bladder used to settle out suspended particles. Brewers can also use plant based fining agents like irish moss instead.

But the basic list of ingredients is: grain, water, yeast, and hops. None of those are animal.

Go ahead, force me to drink an IPA.

Ingredients

The basic ingredients of beer are water; a starch source, such as malted barley, able to be saccharified (converted to sugars) then fermented (converted into ethanol and carbon dioxide); a brewer's yeast to produce the fermentation; and a flavouring such as hops.[61] A mixture of starch sources may be used, with a secondary carbohydrate source, such as maize (corn), rice, wheat, or sugar, often being termed an adjunct, especially when used alongside malted barley.[62] Less widely used starch sources include millet, sorghum and cassava root in Africa, and potato in Brazil, and agave in Mexico, among others.[63] The amount of each starch source in a beer recipe is collectively called the grain bill.

... mainly because it's not a vegetable or a mineral.

So I'm wondering how Biden could "make" beer without yeast, since it's the only fermenting agent? It wouldn't be alcoholic, it would just be hoppy malt-water, without any yeast introduced into the mix.

Yeast - along mushrooms - are neither plants nor animals: they're in their own kingdom, the fungi.
