    Great question. Tiny, microscopic yeast cells, a prokaryot in the biological world, ingests the mash, or 'immature' beer. As a result of this feeding process, the yeast produces carbon dioxide "carbonation", and ethyl alcohol as waste products. Interestingly enough, yeast was not known about to mankind until the 19th century following the advent of the microscope. It wasn't even included as one of the ingredients under the famous German "Reinheitsgebot". Thank you, yeast!
