And live yeast in beer is more common than you think.
come to think of it, by the same argument of there is no yeast in bread because none of the yeast is alive in bread, there is no animal in thoroughly cooked red meat because none of the animal cells in thoroughly cooked meat are alive, and there is no cabbage in thoroughly cooked cabbage because all the cells of a cabbage plant (excluding its roots which are not harvested) are killed when cooked, and there is no strawberries in strawberry jam!

No.

You claimed there was. Prove that.
(And I'm not talking about homeopathic quantities!!)

Wheat in bread!?!!?! Are you mad?

Live yeast in beer? mmm Only had one Belgian one - not worth the expense if you ask me. No idea what percentages are - just talking from
experience (and partly out my @**e)

You tested your beers for live yeast? Or does it say on the container?

I was referring to bottle-conditioned beer - as I'm sure you well know!

No, I do not know. I don't drink beer and don't know a whole lot about it. However this thread made me look up live yeast in beer and it appears canned beer is pasteurized, but bottled or bar beer is often not, or has yeast removed then later added back in.

You said beer, as in all beer, as you well know. Why not simply admit you are wrong?

I was unaware of yeast being added back in. Any links?

I DID NOT SAY ALL BEER.
Here is my post;

There is no yeast in the vast majority of beers (the exception being
bottle-fermented speciality beers). In traditional brewing the yeast
is removed after fermentation - in fact the "old-fashioned" method
was to recover the yeast and re-use it for the next brew.


If I'm wrong as twhitehead says then so be it.

But I NEVER said ALL beers since I was aware of (what I thought was) a small section of the market - bottle-fermented beers.

The exception is not simply those beers, there is also yeast in home brewed and in businesses that brew their own beer. You might want to look into wine for yeast too.

In any case, there is yeast in most wines too. You simply want to argue for the sake of arguing. The fact is that many people already consume yeast, in other words fungus.
