You need yeast to make beer. Scientists discovered that wasps have yeast in their bellies, so why no make beer out of it! Brassneck brewery did just that so I went along to try some of their beer and find out why.

I was not sponsored by Brassneck or anyone to do this video, I made it because I find it very interesting!
