I've seen the subject of brewing with wild yeast pop up now and then, though far more rarely compared to more conventional methods of brewing. I have to say, I'm interested in how it works in detail, because it has the potential to create very unique beers (although I am aware of the potential for a disastrous brew).
Now I've also read that pretty much all of the wild yeasts here in the US are not good for anything but ruining beer, whereas the ones in French/Belgium are mostly pretty good. Is there truth to that? There are some books I could get that will answer some of this, but I'd like to go straight to you guys, since some of you may have had real experience here. Definitely more valuable than a book if you ask me.
Thanks guys.
