So... I was braggin... I mean talking about this brewing thing with my supervisor at work and he was telling me about this other guy at work who also brews his own beer. He said that if we want to use the same yeast that the major brewing companies use (guinness, sam adams, etc.) then all we need to do is grow a yeast culture from the beer directly... lucky enough... you guys have me, where I can do this stuff.

Umm, so you take some Guiness, and grow some yeast out of it? for some reason that kinda grosses me out.
Dude... what do you think happens to the yeast we use? Though I am starting to think that this would not work with canned/bottled beers since they have to be pasteurized, but keg beer doesn't... maybe I will go to the pub and get some samples to grow in my lab.
mmmmm... Sam Adams Oktoberfest get one of those to pull yeast from.
