Didn't someone else do this just a few years back? Sounds very familiar.

Brew on

Title is perfect.

According to the article, the brewery does this every year with a different, um, smear.

 

[lumpher]

Sure...

I was thinking more like Shock Thot............

The brewery is on the far side of an ocean buffer. That's a bit close

 

[MaxStout]

What'll they come up with next? Box wine?

"I said it's a yeast pitch. PITCH!"

Knowing precious little about yeast in general and even less about such exotic strains that fall under the topic, I confess I'm left wondering what types of saccharides can they handle - and why? Seems evident monosaccharides are in their wheel house, but wouldn't it be ironic if they are efficient at processing maltotriose which seems to evade a large proportion of "brewing yeast strains" - and then wonder why that is?

Yeah, weird. Probably best not contemplated at length...

Cheers!

The article title is misleading: "a gynecologist collects the vaginal smear, which is then transported to a laboratory where the lactobacillus bacteria is isolated". So no yeast (infection)

Fake News strikes again!

 

[balrog]

Couldn't they smear something else for lacto?
