if you want to be scientific about it, take the same wort and divide it into aliquots, and pitch each with a different yeast. You'll discover (i) you can make a drinkable beer with bread yeast (ii) yeasts ain't all the same. Different yeasts can impart, as everyone here knows, different flavors.

As for immunologists, what would they know? I remember when all they talked about was T cell repertoires, with not a care or mention of innate immunity, which in many ways is where it's at (yes, I know about smallpox...).

They are prone to studying the side of an elephant with a microscope.

How's that for an inflammatory statement!
 
Immunology is one of the most complex areas of science, but that doesn't make you a microbiologist.
 
No yeast was yeast before the great oxygenation, they have fossils but scientists believe there was a tiny amount of oxygen being produced on earth as the yeast needed the oxygen to reproduce but I just wonder where their energy source came from?
