Key Findings
- Researchers at Carlsberg Research Laboratory developed a new method called FIND-IT to create diverse yeast strains for brewing
- The FIND-IT method uses advanced genetic techniques to identify yeast strains with unique flavor profiles without using GMOs
- This new method helps the brewing industry meet evolving consumer demands for new beer styles and flavors
