Funny yeast extraction was reported back in 1995 i.e.
RJ Cano, MK Borucki, 'Revival and identification of bacterial spores in 25- to 40-million-year-old Dominican amber', Science 19 May 1995:Vol. 268. no. 5213, pp. 1060 - 1064 DOI: 10.1126/science.7538699
Its only the beer angle that made the news with this new extraction.
BTW You can only get the beer in Northern California according to the company web site.
