History of Brewing Man has been making beer since the dawn of civilization. Where grain was grown, beer was made. Sumaria (4000 BC) Sikaru Egypt (3000 BC) Zythum India (2000 BC) Sura China (2000 BC) Kiu Kindly provided by Tom Pugh and David Ryder of Miller Brewing Company

History of Brewing Sumarian beer recipe 3000 BC Resembled liquid bread: Barley and Emmer Spices / fruits No Hops Safe, nutritious, and exhilarating beverage. Kindly provided by Tom Pugh and David Ryder of Miller Brewing Company

The Role of Yeast in Brewing
Unwittingly, ancient brewers domesticated yeast. Selected yeast that made good beer. Deduced that yeast was important to make beer. Collect the creamy foam or sediment from one brew. Use it to pitch the next brew. Did not know what yeast was. Kindly provided by Tom Pugh and David Ryder of Miller Brewing Company

The Role of Yeast in Brewing
1680 Antonie van Leeuwenhoek Observed yeast in beer. Cagniard Latour Microbe is responsible for alcoholic fermentation. 1839 -Justus von Liebig and Friedrich Wohler Alcohol is produced by a chemical process in which dead and decaying yeast participated. Satired Latour’s theory in Annalen der Chemie . . . Kindly provided by Tom Pugh and David Ryder of Miller Brewing Company

Types of Brewing Yeasts
Two types of brewing yeasts, originally classified on flocculation behavior… Top-fermenting Ale yeast Weiss yeast Bottom-fermenting Lager yeast Kindly provided by Tom Pugh and David Ryder of Miller Brewing Company

Ale Yeast Predominant brewing yeast prior to the mid-1800s. Displaced by lager yeast Strains are genetically more diverse - several origins Warm fermentation temperatures: 65 to 72 °F. Kindly provided by Tom Pugh and David Ryder of Miller Brewing Company
15
Kindly provided by Tom Pugh and David Ryder of Miller Brewing Company
Weiss Yeast Bavarian origins - closely related. Produces beer that has spicy, clove, vanilla, and nutmeg flavor notes - POF. PAD1 gene phenylacrylic acid decarboxylase Decarboxylation of ferulic acid forms 4-vinyl-guaiacol, which gives the characteristic clove flavor. Warm fermentation temperatures: 65 to 72 °F. Kindly provided by Tom Pugh and David Ryder of Miller Brewing Company
16
Kindly provided by Tom Pugh and David Ryder of Miller Brewing Company
Lager Yeast Bavarian origin. 1400s in Munich - cool fermentations (selective pressure) Taken to Pilsen and Copenhagen in 1840s Pale malt, soft water, aromatic hops Became very popular - displaced ale yeast Popularity fueled by advances of Industrial Revolution Steam power, refrigeration, railroads, pasteurization and filtration technology Strains are closely related - common origins Cool fermentation temperatures: 42 to 52 °F Beers are more delicate, clean, drinkable, and less aromatic.

Taxonomy Ale and Weiss yeasts - Saccharomyces cerevisiae Polyploid and probably aneuploid. Non-mating Sporulates poorly and poor spore viability Lager yeast - Saccharomyces pastorianus S. cerevisiae S. carlsbergensis S. uvarum Sporulates very poorly - poor spore viability Kindly provided by Tom Pugh and David Ryder of Miller Brewing Company
