Saccharomyces Cerevisiae er blot Carlsbergs fine ord for overgær...

Interesting. Note that he does not say that all top-fermenting yeasts
are low-alc, but that (at that time??) in Denmark, there were two kinds
of yeasts, Calrsbergensis, and "Cervisiae", which was top-fermenting,
and low in alcohol tolerance.

Now the question is if anyone has this old yeast available any more?
Perhaps Carlsbergs library has a sample of it, or WhatsHisName
Jørgensesn Laboratory? Somehow I suspect that such yeast has not been in
production use for a longer time - pasteurising the bottles to stop
fermentation is so much easier for modern industrial breweries.
