Kind of interesting, I am curious to try this!

Its probably just pacman yeast...
White labs said it wasn't there yeast and was a different strain all together. Last I checked there making pilot batches to see what style it will suit.
beers already ready, released yesterday
Thanks. Looks like I'm headed to San Francisco thus weekend.
u gonna try it out?
I agree with some of what you two said. While there donut collaboration beers are awful in my opinion, this beard beer has a fairly decent rating on Untappd for how few tastings there have been so far.
I for one would totally use a yeast I found if it promised to make good beer. I think this is less gimmicky, more "whoa, whod'a thought."
Is this what Rogue has been reduced to?
Marketing stunts on questionable beer choices...
Bacon maple and now this.
What's up Rogue, what happened?
Sorry but that is disgusting.
I like Rogue but I am firmly in the "not interested" camp. I also think it's gross. Come on, guys. Craft beer is getting big, and it seems harder every month to stand out, but you don't have to do things that are this wild. Just make good beer. I don't want to think about some other dude's nappy beard while sipping a pint.
day trippr:
Would you call that brew "My Candida?"
You realize he didn't dip his beard into the wort, right? A few hairs were sent to white labs, a yeast was isolated and grown. Just like every yeast that ever got a start at a yeast lab (minus the beard part). All yeasts used in brewing were wild at some point.
Thats AWESOME! The second link is for a yeast that was cultured from: "Vaginal isolate from patient recently treated with Clotrimazole, Antwerp, Belgium." - Now that sounds like an interesting yeast to try, huh? If I had to choose between those two you posted I would have to go with this one over the one taken from the stool sample.
