and here I always thought it was the pizza!
So does that mean when I have a homebrew party in a couple weeks my house is going to smell like farts all night?

There are plenty of reasons that home brew makes us have gas. What do you think malted barley is???? GRAIN!, and grain is one of our top sources of dietary fiber. One liter of beer can have as much as 20% of your daily intake of fiber. I know when I get into my kegs of brew I seldom stop at one liter. Another reason is you are typically ingesting a large amount of C02, and all that excess gas has to go somewhere. Finally YEAST! Yeast co-inhabit in the intestines with over 400 other strands of micro flora bacteria. These bacteria keep the yeast in check, but when we consume more yeast than ussual AKA home brew, it is more than these micro flora can handle and semptoms of that can include bloating and gas. This is what causes gas!
