Amouranth, the Kick streamer, is allegedly brewing beer with her vaginal yeast. It’s an obvious publicity stunt to squeeze more money from her impressionable and “thirsty” audience.

Gross-factor aside, is this even possible? Is it analogous to brewer’s yeast? Would this cause undesirable side effects or introduce undesirable compounds?

    I was wondering about that! I wasn’t sure what strain it was and didn’t really want to look it up, haha. Very good point, though!

      Just to add technically I’m wrong, they’re using a Lactobacillus not a yeast.
