But no brewer apparently wants to be first to introduce GM yeast in a product line.

Blue Moon has cryogenically frozen yeast that produces three time the "banana" as the natural version. And apparently it’s going to stay frozen indefinitely.

I brought a bottle of this http://www.ratebeer.com/beer/chocolate-city-mister-mayor/200090/ to a tasting in Antwerp once. After everyone tried it, I told them the marionberries in it were GMO. The reactions were priceless.

I count 15 beers on here named Cadillac, but prob GM doesn’t brew any of them.

Male fish lay eggs around the waters near Washington DC. That delicious, delicious DC drinking water comes from the same source.
