I once worked at a brewery in London. When their real ale's finished it's cloudy, needs to be polished. Means getting all that dead yeast and dust particles outa there. Traditionally they'd bung isinglass straight into the barrels and roll them around a bit. The isinglass floculates the yeast, attracts it all and turns it to jelly, which eventually sinks to the bottom of the barrel. The beer turns out nice and clear, mostly it's decanted into smaller barrels for delivery to the local pubs.

Isenglass is fish swim bladders, dried and powdered. Mixed with dead yeast carcases and the general dirt particles it removes from the beer it smells pretty much like you'd expect, stale yeast and dead fish. It looks and feels not entirely unlike a mixture of snot and porridge. It was collected in a large tank, which was emptied into a road tanker, monthly,(ish). This is what Marmite and Vegemite labels refer to euphemistically as "yeast extract". Other than obviously being filtered I don't know how it's transformation is accomplished, but I don't believe there's much else involved in the way of ingredients.

no i don't think so. which is why they've been offline, rather than just starting up a new plant.

they (marmite inc.) were getting their extract from some brewery or other down there - particular strains of yeast etc have soaked into the walls and whatnot, giving it the flavour we know and love.

quite cool, some of the cunt-ry breweries in yurp use open fermentation: they've been there so long that the right strains of yeast are wilding, they cook up their wort and open the lid to let the yeast come and do it's thing, then close it down for bottling, while the yeast persists out in the yonder.

i wasn't aware that commercial breweries used isinglass.. i thought it was more the home brewers' shit. learn something new every day.

You miss that here. Antiquity.

John Courage brewery, near London Bridge. Built a stone's throw from the original globe theatre, on the site of a natural spring. The bulk stuff certainly wasn't polished like that, but a lot of their smaller, older brands were.

There was a liqour warehouse behind the brewery. If you put a crate of Worthington E outside a certain external door opening onto an alley before you went up to the canteen for dinner it'd turn into a couple of bottles of Johnny Walker. Was fucking magic. It'd been happening for over 40 years.

While I was there a couple of guys walked in past security somehow, got into the cab of one of the big artic delivery rigs and drove it out past security, this time with forged paperwork. Alarm went 10 min later when the proper driver came down from smoko. This is central Londone, here. They never found it. Can't remember what it was worth, wasn't peanuts, though.

Vegemite household here, but what I can see/hear, they've lost a lot of costumers over this and I fear they won't get them back.

Also their Nazi tactics against Weet-a-bix was hardly a good PR stunt, the cunts lol

Well I've got the date marked on every calendar. As soon as the supermarket opens that day I'll be there - the marmite had better be too!

The man of the house prefers Promite (but then so does my nanna) and he also loves Horlicks I consider his culinary tastes dubious at times.

Marmite FTW!!

No way!!! I've been checking out my locals every time I 'm out and haven't seen it yet (only the sea of yellow Vegeshite lids). I'm off to the shops now!

Unless Auckland is behind other regions of NZ.....

[PrincessBandit]

You tell porkies!!! I rang seven supermarkets with my hopes all high, ready to jump on the trusty steed and claim my long awaited treasure. Alas every single one said none in store yet.

[Swoop]

Thank goodness.

Bovril will sell out soon!
